This is not possible.

The way to do this would be to connect the MTS data card to your laptop, setup your wifi as ad-hoc and then bridge (or join) the connection between the data card and the wifi. This will give you internet from your bb8900 wifi to the laptop and over the data card.

You don't need to use a network bridge. Setup the AdHoc network, then setup internet connection sharing on the laptop. Then go to the wifi setup of the phone and connect to the ICS configuration on the laptop. The laptop will be acting as a router for the phone.
