About Rogers Communications in Canada

Rogers Communications is one of the telecommunications providers active under Canada's CRTC-regulated competitive carrier framework. Like all Canadian carriers, Rogers Communications obtains telephone numbers through allocations of central office (CO) codes — three-digit prefixes within an area code that each represent a block of 10,000 numbers. These allocations are managed by the Canadian Numbering Administrator on behalf of the CRTC.

A number originally issued by Rogers Communications may today be carried by any other Canadian wireline or wireless carrier, because Canada has had full local number portability since 2007. AreaTrace lists Rogers Communications as a carrier presence in an area code when the carrier is known to operate retail wireless or wireline service to subscribers in that NPA — not as a current carrier-of-record claim for any specific number.

If you need authoritative carrier-of-record information for a specific phone number — for example for legal or compliance purposes — the Canadian Local Number Portability Consortium (CLNPC) operates the database of record. For consumer-facing identification of who is calling, however, the carrier presence list on AreaTrace is more than enough context to understand the telephony landscape of any given Canadian area code.
