Has your Phone been activated through AT&T under a legitimate wireless contract? If not, the Apple website won't show it as active.

Nope, any iPhone used in Canada doesn't have a warranty as the iPhone isn't available for sale here.

Well what are you going to do if something goes wrong with the phone? You can't bring it to an Apple store in Canada, they won't service it. You can drive to the States to an Apple store there, but unless you have an AT&T account (which requires an American address) they won't look at it either.

In order to get the iPhone warranty serviced, you have to have two things. 1: an untouched (not unlocked, not jailbroken) phone, which means you'd have to virginize it before you brought it to them. 2: You have to have an AT&T wireless contract.
