Q: Activate abroad with foreign sim

We are planning to buy iPhones whilst in Canada. I would like to get a pay as you go sim from a Canadian company for a month.

 

Is there a problem using this sim to activate the iPhone then change sim when I get home

 

Also can you activate 2 phones on one sim.  We would want to use my husbands phone whilst on vacation. But I would like to also check that mine is ok before leaving Canada.

 

Does the wifi work without a sim, so I could use hot spot to check my email.
