Problem is that it's an antiquated way of charging the consumer. Telephone calls used to actually go through wires. They don't anymore. But they still charge as if they do.

If they're called 'area codes' they should be geographically assigned. Which, to an extent, they are, but there is no definition of what is long distance and what isn't. Lethbridge is long distance but Canmore isn't. Actually, Canmore is long distance on Telus Mobility, but not on Rogers. Why?
