Looks like they've set a date for when this will come into effect. As of Sept. 12th 2008 we'll be dialing 10 digits for all our calls. 403 and 780 phone numbers will keep their area codes and all new numbers across the province after that date will receive a new 587 area code.

The CRTC announced today its approval of an industry plan to give new listings a new area code, 587, over the entire province by Sept. 12, 2008. Current numbers will keep the 403 area code in southern Alberta and the 780 in northern Alberta.
