Dialling from and to New Glasgow
Because New Glasgow sits inside a single-NPA region, callers may still be able to use 7-digit local dialling, though 10-digit dialling is universally accepted. From outside Canada and the United States, dial your international access prefix, then +1, then the 10-digit number.
Mobile carriers in New Glasgow typically issue numbers from whichever overlay code is currently being released by the NANP relief plan. As a result, two members of the same household frequently carry numbers from two different area codes — for example a long-time resident with an original-assignment number and a newer subscriber with an overlay number.

About New Glasgow, Nova Scotia
New Glasgow is located in Nova Scotia, Canada. It is one of the cities catalogued by AreaTrace within this province. The city falls within the Atlantic Time (AST/ADT, UTC-4/-3) time zone.
Numbers issued to subscribers in New Glasgow can come from any of the area codes assigned to the surrounding numbering plan area: 902. With number portability now standard across all Canadian carriers, the area code attached to a New Glasgow number tells you only where that number was first issued — not who currently carries it or where the device is physically located.
If you are trying to identify a recent call from 902, the caller is most likely either based in New Glasgow or another community within the same NPA, has previously held a number issued in this area, or — in the case of telemarketing and scam calls — is spoofing a local prefix to increase the chance you pick up.
