Are you serious, because I'm using Fido as my cell provider right now... but... nothing about long distance calls when I dial ANY 613 number... but Telus does that in Alberta... because I called using a telus cell from banff to Calgary and it said it was Long Distance, but not when I use Fido...

Do you know which part of Ottawa is considered Long Distance (like... St. Laurent or Nepean or others?)
