Hey N2V.
Here is the link to unlocking the phone. Read through everything there and that should get you started.

Unless your planning on moving to the states your carrier options are going to be limited to Bell, Telus or a provincial provider that is CDMA.

Here is a link about switching from Telus to a provincial provider. It has some links in it to other resources for you to read through.

Unlocking just allows you to flash a custom rom or radio to your device not switch carriers at will. You have a cdma phone and you are thinking of SIM Unlocking which is for gsm devices which allows you to use any gsm carrier you want. The only way you can switch carriers with a cdma device (legally) is contact the carrier you want to use and see if they will add your phones esn to their network which allows you to make/receive calls on their network. That can be difficult.
Sorry to burst your bubble.
