The 514 area code will only be used for the island of Montreal. The new 450 area code will replace the existing 514 area code for the region off the island. Between June 13th and September 30th, there will be a transition period during which everything will work normally. At the end of this transistion period, the change of area code will be fully in place. Not to worry, these are not new long distance calls and they will in no way deteriorate the quality of service you presently receive, or change their cost.
