It depends on the plan. Which one are you referring to?

I presume you mean AC2 and not AC1. It's my understanding that under
AC2, there are no longer any roaming areas, and the phones are
prohibited from roaming on *any* foreign (non VZW or their roaming
agreement partners) system, even if you were willing to pay for the
minutes.

I had a Verizon sales rep tell me that AC2 will roam in Canada. I don't
know if I should believe him or not. Has anyone had any experience with
this.

Thanks,

Under AC-II, there are LOTS of roaming (non-VZW) areas. What there isn't
is roaming *charges*. Pay-roaming areas from AC-I either became free
under AC-II, or they were made inaccessible, with no option to pay for
using them. This is for U.S. systems. I think you will pay for roaming
in Canada under AC-II.

That's why I qualified it to say "foreign", as in not native VZW or
their roaming agreement partners' systems.
