Ontario’s population is growing faster than a man’s beard, but now we have proof that the numbers are just staggering. For the first time in Canadian history a third area code will need to be added to keep up with the alarming number of mobile users. The CRTC has issued the area code 365 for activation on March 25th, 2013, with the 289 and 905 area codes expected to run out by March of 2014.

With this being said I wonder when Toronto’s beloved 416/647 area codes will start to run out? 648 was meant to replace 416 for the mobile generation, but it seems like there is a lot of recycling taking place, and 416 numbers are still available. Guess we will have to wait and see.
