iPhone in Canada: Ontario is Getting a New Area Code in 2025, Says CRTC
Starting April 26, 2025, Ontario will debut a new 942 area code to meet the growing demand for phone numbers in the region. Current area codes are 416, 437, and 647 [and 613]. The decision was made to ensure there are enough phone numbers in the province.
“The introduction of a new area code creates millions of additional telephone numbers without affecting the existing numbers,” said Kelly T. Walsh, Program Manager of the Canadian Numbering Administrator, in a statement. “The new 942 area code will be added to the current area codes already in use in this region and will cover the same geographic area.”

Getting there fast enough is a challenge. So far, SMRs are no cheaper per kW or kWh than the traditional behemoths.
On my Om (Om Malik): Waiting for Apple’s Intelligence
This morning, I asked Siri to create a playlist for Eric Hilton on Apple Music. Its response? “Sorry, I don’t understand.” Come on, Siri, this shouldn’t be so difficult.
And don’t even get me started on the iPhone’s spelling and grammar suggestions. Compared to other AI-powered tools like Google Docs, Apple’s offerings feel practically prehistoric. The suggestions often lack context and sometimes border on nonsensical. It’s like playing grammar roulette every time you type a message.
