FYI: Ten (10) Digit Dialing takes effect April 1, 2023

Important Notice: Ten (10) digit dialing is starting April 1, 2023.

When calling the SCFHT, please ensure you enter 10 digits, including the area code (807-468-6321). This also affects your other local calls (make sure you use the area code + local number).

The 9-1-1 emergency number remains a three-digit number throughout the area.

The introduction of 10-digit dialing is the result of a decision by the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC). Further details regarding this decision can be found here: https://crtc.gc.ca/eng/archive/2022/2022-234.htm
