Hi EVRYONE...
Apple iPhone 4S 16GB costs 649$ in Canada.....
But I want to know the total costs including sales tax?

It's $649.99 multiplied by 13% because that is the tax in Canada. Makes it around $733 with tax.
 
No, rogers locked phone don't work for fido, and vice versa. Even though they are the same company, their locked phones are interchangable after activatived for the first time.

Fixed that for you. In fact, they aren't interchangeable at all if you bought the phone from a carrier. Only the Apple Store's iPhones are unlocked prior to activating them on a contract (or still unlocked if bought outright).

OP, I don't think there's an unlock for the 4S currently...but I'm not too sure. The untethered jailbreak was just released a few weeks ago.
