They do exist in Canada, but I suspect that sweet a deal is not on the menu here.

Doesn't virgin use the Sprint network? That would be a huge downside.

9to5Mac - Wednesday, August 23, 2017 at 5:58 AM Ahead of iPhone 8,
Virgin Mobile extends 'all you can eat for one year for $1' deal to
switchers

Virgin Mobile really loves iPhone users . After going iPhone-only back
in June, and offering a really sweet deal to those buying a new phone,
it has now extended the offer to existing iPhone owners switching to the 
carrier.
The carrier says that any iPhone owner who ports their number to
Virgin will be able to get the same 'all you can eat' $1 deal for a full 12 
months .

When you bring your existing iPhone and transfer your phone number to
the "Inner Circle" plan, you will enjoy 12 months of unlimited talk,
text and high-speed data for just $1 on Virgin Mobile's nationwide network.
After the first year, you'll be switched to the company's standard
'unlimited everything' plan, which costs $50 per month. The deal
needn't end there, though: you'll get an additional six months of
service for $1 if you upgrade to a new iPhone.
As we noted before, the usual carrier caveats apply: your data usage
may be 'deprioritized' if you go over 23GB a month, and terminated
altogether if you do a lot of roaming. To qualify, you'll need an
iPhone 5s or later, and the offer is subject to confirmation of compatibility 
with Virgin's network.
Virgin says that the deal is open for a short time, but doesn't
specify a cutoff date.
"At Virgin Mobile, we don't like playing by the rules, even our own,"
said Dow Draper, CEO of Virgin Mobile USA. "Consumers know that the
Inner Circle is the real deal, but many love their current phones or
don't want to upgrade yet. So, now for a short period of time, you can
bring your own iPhone to Virgin Mobile and enjoy everything the Inner
Circle offers - including the savings - $1 for 12 months of service.
It's also a great way to try out the Virgin Mobile network with your own 
iPhone."
It does say that there will be a $25 charge for the SIM from September 29.
