Mount Royal (electoral District)
Mount Royal (french: Mont-Royal) is a federal electoral district in Quebec, Canada, that has been represented in the House of Commons of Canada since 1925. Its population in 2006 was 98,888. The riding is among the strongest Liberal ridings in the country. Réal Caouette, long-time leader of the Social Credit Party in Quebec, once said that a mailbox could win the Liberal nomination in Mount Royal and still win election just because it was red (the traditional colour of the Liberal Party).

Area Code 514/438
Area codes 514, 438 and 263 are telephone area codes of the North American Numbering Plan (NANP) for Montreal and most of its on-island suburbs, specifically the Island of Montreal and Île Perrot in the Canadian province of Quebec. Area code 514 was one of the original area codes assigned by AT&T in 1947. The original numbering plan area (NPA) was split twice: in 1957 to create area code 819 and in 1998 to create area code 450. In 2006, the entire remaining 514 area was assigned a second area code, 438, in an overlay plan and so ten-digit dialing became mandatory in the Montreal area. The incumbent local exchange carrier (ILEC) in the service area is Bell Canada. The major competitive local exchange carriers (CLECs) are Vidéotron, Telus, and Rogers. History Montreal's local calls were originally handled manually by operators. A called party was requested by name before the first (four-digit) local numbers were assigned in July 1881. In 1898, exchange names ("Main," "Westmount ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
