Easy! Make sure you know the brand and model. Then go to wikipedia to check their advertised frequencies.

For GSM, Canada is 850/1900. For 3GSM/UMTS/HSDPA, Canada is 850/1700/1900.

My advice is to go to gsmarena.com to check out. Note that the 1700 frequency is pretty new and different country has different spec on this frequency.

Currently, Wind, Mobilicity, and Videotron work on that here in Canada. In the US, it's TMobile

yes they do. but the phone's manufacturers can use another spec to implement the 1700 frequency! that's why use gsmarena.com to check. they only list phones in the aws 1700 frequency.
