Calling Canada: what to know

Canada answers on the country code +1, with the capital in Ottawa and most business concentrated around Toronto, Montreal and Vancouver. The working language for business is English and French (Quebec), and local offices generally keep hours of 9:00 to 17:00 local time across provinces. Quebec businesses often add a one-hour lunch break and many close early on Fridays.

Outbound calls on StartACall need no phone number and no app. You place them from the browser, and you only add a US or Canada number when you also want to receive inbound calls.

Most mobiles in Canada sit on operators such as Rogers, Bell Mobility, Telus. Bilingual greetings ('Bonjour, hello') are standard for businesses operating in Quebec or serving federal clients.

Canada runs on UTC minus 5, and it shifts for daylight saving, so confirm the current difference before an early or late call.
