I am unsure what you are saying here about "speculation" please
provide a source for your info.

I would keep the number most likely and either route Canadian callers
to an IVR with offers in-line with with people in the same demographic
of being late on their cell phone bill or if a firm was very
interested, such as a prepaid Canadian cell phone company, I would
route the call directly to them.

US callers would go to the original destination that I obtained the
toll free number for.

Being a toll-free ANI is provided, although not foolproof but good
enough to separate the US caller from the Canadian cell phone line.

Does that qualify as "speculation"? I am offered all kinds of junk
while on hold or listening to a greeting when calling X company on a
regular basis.

Thanks,
Steve Totaro
