Like it's being done in Australia, unreturned Samsung Galaxy Note7 units in Canada will also be disconnected from mobile networks on December 15, the company said in a press release.
A battery charge-limiting update will be rolled out on December 12, and WiFi and Bluetooth functionalities will also be disabled on the same day.

In case of emergency, Note7 devices in Canada will be able to dial 911 though. For those who aren't in the know, Samsung has already shut down mobile network access for unreturned Note7 units in New Zealand.
