Minimising data costs (non-roaming) for travellers in the US and Canada?

For a short-term visit (2-3 weeks) what would be the best bet - is there one that would work in both countries (sans-roaming) or will he need two cards, and if so, what the cheapest option would be (focusing just on data costs)?
