02Route notes
The route reaches subscribers of Rogers, Bell, Telus and Freedom Mobile. None of them deliver alphanumeric senders: the platform assigns a local numeric sender automatically, and recipients can reply if you rent a dedicated number. Each operator is monitored separately; when one degrades it shows on the status page under Routes: North America.
The GSM-7 alphabet fits Canada traffic in segments of 160 characters (153 per part when concatenated). A transactional message with a code and a link usually fits in one segment.
Quiet hours for Canada are set to 08:00 to 21:00 local, editable per campaign. Import numbers in E.164 with the +1 prefix, like +1 948 555 9059; local formats are normalised when the country is known.
Delivery receipts are available on this route: every message ends as delivered, failed or expired, with the carrier code on failures.
03Sender ID
Alphanumeric senders are not delivered by the local operators. Messages leave from a numeric sender in the destination, assigned automatically and free of charge; rent a dedicated number with inbound if you want recipients to reply.

Latin text is sent in GSM-7, 160 characters (153 per part when concatenated) per segment. Add an emoji or a non-Latin character and the whole message switches to Unicode at 70 characters (67 per part when concatenated). The composer shows the count before you send. Up to 6 parts per message.
Operators in Canada return handset delivery receipts, so delivered means the phone received the message, usually within seconds.
