Will i be charged extra if i have an unlimited texting plan with AT&T and text a friend from the U.S. who is on vacation in Canada? (my friend has an unlimited texting plan with verizon).

Text or multimedia message to a domestic number cost the same to the domestic sender regardless of the physical location of the recipient. The recipient pays extra to send messages while roaming internationally. Incoming messages to that person are either at the domestic pay per use rate or come out of their allowance, if available.

These are the rules of AT&T Mobility. Other carriers may have different terms. Verizon might bill both incoming and outgoing messages to its domestic subscribers while in Canada at the same rate as messages in the United States.

So, I won't be charged any extra fees?

It is handled the same as making a phone call to a domestic number. You do not pay extra based upon the physical location of the recipient's phone. Only your physical location determines what you pay.
