The list of communities are separated into the two provinces for clarity. Maritime Tel & Tel operates telephone service in Nova Scotia, while Island Tel operates service in Prince Edward Island. Revisions for December 91 list: 227, 238, 239, 267, 498, 592, 661. Halifax-Dartmouth has traditionally had phone numbers starting with 4xx. It was a nice rule of prefix assignment and there is plenty of room for new 4xx prefixes. Bedford 835 is part of the Halifax exchange area, but a separate town so it didn't really count. Yet, no, MT&T had break that rule by starting up new prefixes of the form 2xx for the recent round of Halifax expansion. 498 was one new Halifax prefix that did fit the 4xx rule, however. Revisions for January 91 list (since previous Spring 90 list) - new prefixes found: 271, 272, 327, 461, 496, 628, 681, 725, 749, 927, 928, 969, 981, 990  Downloaded From P-80 International Information Systems 304-744-2253
