US state LATAs

The city or place name given with some LATAs is the name given to identify the LATA, not the limit of its boundary. Generally this is the most significant metropolitan area in the LATA.

Local interconnection region

Canada does define local interconnection regions (LIR's), which determine where points of interconnection (POI) must be provided by Competitive local exchange carrier, competing local exchange and mobile carriers to provide local number portability. A Canadian LIR is geographically smaller than a US LATA, typically comparable in size to a small city's flat-rate local calling area or to an entire large regional municipality. In areas where a small-city Digital Multiplex System controls a group of remote switching centres, one for each surrounding village, the local interconnect region normally includes each exchange in the city plus all downstream remotes of those exchanges. In a Toronto-sized city, the LIR will include only the city itself. While the LIRs resemble local calling areas in geographic size, there are some key differences: * LIR's normally do not include incumbent local independent telephone company exchanges in locations not opened to competition, where the independent numbers are currently not portable. * LIR's do not cross provincial boundaries. Lloydminster has an LIR for each province, as does Ottawa-Hull, Quebec, Hull. * LIR's closely follow network topology, which often does not match a local flat-rate calling area as local calling is defined by arbitrary regulatory constructs. One example: The tiny unincorporated village of Beebe Plain, divided by the Quebec-

border, is served by +1-819-876 Rock Island, Quebec, Canada (a remote station controlled from Magog, Quebec, Magog) and +1-802-873 Derby Line, Vermont, USA (a remote station controlled from St. Johnsbury, Vermont, St. Johnsbury). Magog and St. Johnsbury are both a long-distance call from anywhere in Beebe Plain, even though Canadian subscribers can place local calls to Sherbrooke, US subscribers can locally call Newport (city), Vermont, Newport and an international call within the village is local. An LIR assignment which follows network topology places the Canadian remote station in Magog's LIR, not Sherbrooke's LIR.Rock Island QC
