I'm saying that at least we don't have to dial an extra 3 digits just to cross the border between alberta and BC or alberta and idaho or idaho and washington.
I guess it's a small advantage to have all the area codes you want in every country. Sort of like back in the day (as someone already mentioned), you knew that someone was calling from bonavista when a 278 number showed up, or acadia with 253. Of course there were only 4 numbers following the 3 digit prefix.

Not sure if I have this figured out... Let's say you are calling from Rome to Milan. Do you have to dial the country code for Italy (+39) to make that call? If so, I think I get what you're saying.
