This code was introduced on 10 July 1992 when Canada switched from its old international dialling code of +800 to +1 for all incoming calls from abroad. This change was made so that all incoming calls would be routed through international carriers instead of neighbouring countries. This has helped increase security as well as improve call quality for customers calling into Canada from abroad. Check programingplease for Canada in 2010.
