About Quebec

In contrast to the North American Numbering Plan used in the rest of Canada and the United States, Quebec uses the North American Numbering Plan Administration system for mobile phone numbers. This system uses a different format for mobile phone numbers and prefixes, with numbers starting with the digit 3 rather than the digit 4 used in the NANP. This is because the NANPA system was implemented in Quebec before the rest of Canada adopted the NANP. Additionally, Quebec has a bilingual heritage and both French and English are official languages. This reflects in the phone numbers as well, where you can find phone numbers starting with the letters QC which stands for Quebec and is an abbreviation for the French name Québec.
