Notes on 800
Much of this was adapted from Telecom Digest's guide to codes, of which
the 800 prefixes were included.
Where local telcos, such as Illinois Bell offer 800 service, they purchase
blocks of numbers from AT&T on prefixes assigned to AT&T. They are free
to purchase blocks of numbers from any carrier of their choice however.
Often, exchanges of the form NN2 are used internally within an area code
or region, such as 552 or 772 in Saskatchewan, or for intra-state use.
800 Service is based on the area code where the number is located, and
the area code of the caller. For instance, 800 service begins with
toll-free access within a single area code (but no access from phones
outside the area code). Then, 800 service becomes available in "zones",
or groups of Canadian area codes arranged in bands of area codes starting
with the immediately surrounding areas. The higher the band number, the
more distant the area codes that can be reached.
In recent years, US 800 numbers have become available in Canada (and
vice-versa). Canadian 800 numbers can be made available to the U.S.
in three coverage areas; the initial "band" of coverage is for a few
states closest to the area code in which the Canadian number is located.
A second and third band is then used to cover greater areas of the U.S.,
up to coverage throughout the U.S..
Soon, Telecom Canada plans to have an "800 PLUS" service which will allow
for such things as the use of a single 800 number to direct the call to
any of a number of centres in Canada. This is useful, say, if calls from
the west were to be handled in Vancouver while other calls are taken in
Toronto. Only one 800 number would be used, simplifying advertising
and promotion for the business using this feature. Another "800 PLUS"
feature will likely include time sensitive routing (say, where calls
are redirected to other cities after hours).
New Service Control Points in Calgary and Toronto will make the new
features possible. The new technology can also render exchange numbers
meaningless; that is, any number could be assigned to go anywhere with
any restrictions, unlike the regional and zonal restrictions of the
present 800 number network. Some businesses may need several 800 numbers
to provide proper coverage, for instance.

One of the new 800 exchanges in Canada is 668. This allows for such
numbers as (800) ONTARIO (668.2746).
Provincial NN2 exchanges
Some provinces also have intra-provincial 800 service using exchanges
that end in 2 (NN2 format). These numbers may only be called from within
the province involved. This list is not guaranteed to be complete, as
there may be other exchanges that are not commonly known.
