The way a cellular network works, is that the cell phone in any given location sends and receives messages to a local cell phone tower, by means of microwave transmissions. The local tower is plugged in to the hard wired phone lines.

How does the phone system connect a call from Canada to China?

The answer to this question depends on if a cellular phone or a land line is being used. If it is a land line, your voice is transferred into digital information in bytes. These bytes are sent via a fiber-optic cable to your friend's phone. A cell phone works in a similar way, but instead of being sent through fiber-optic cables and computers between land lines, digital signals are sent to satellites and then sent back down to the other person's cell phone.
