Question Title How many characters are allowed in Canadian messages?

Most of the Canadian carriers only support a maximum message length of 136 characters. Rogers and Fido technically support 160 characters (as they are GSM carriers) but the CWTA guidelines stipulate that shortcode campaigns must use a maximum message length of 136 in order to ensure a consistent user experience across all carriers.
