Considering Verizon Wireless doesn't operate in Canada, it probably doesn't apply to you.

so there's only 2 versions?

P.S: I don't think At&t operates in Canada either

My understanding is that the Verizon iPhone has a slightly different form factor (the mute switch) because they needed to shift the antennas for the CDMA version. All other iPhone 4s are exactly the same.

The top phone in the two that are stacked is the Verizon iPhone.
