    Fizz numbers are real cell numbers. You receive a SIM card and can use it in your phone with actual cell service. Fizz operates on the same network than Vidéotron. It worked for different services activation codes for me.
    And here is one confirm occurence of google —and others— sms working:

    Virtual numbers can generally only be used from an app (or a computer) with Wifi (or Internet data connection from a real SIM).

    It is a real number, i transferred my old number from another provider. If you ever decide to leave you can keep the same number. So it is definitely a real number
