OK I am in Canada so I can shed a little light on this for you. The phone is either incorrectly sold to you or it is one of the earlier ones that were unlocked but got locked when it was bought. My phone was bought from Apple it is unlocked, I am on Fido and I've tested my phone with Rogers, Telus and Bell SIMs which all worked. I didn't have to do anything just put the microSIM in and power on the phone. The carriers here also sell the phone off contract for the same price as the unlocked one but it is still locked to their network. I have three friends with this and my SIM wont work in their phone which is from another carrier. So perhaps that is why the seller thought it was unlocked when it's really not. So you can get in contact with the seller and returnthe phone and buy another unlocked one, put it up for sale at the same price and ship it to a Canadian buyer or you could wait until the JB and unlock is out and do it and sell or keep it.
