When there's a risk of an area code running out of phone numbers, an 'Overlay Area Code' is created that has the same geographic boundaries as the existing area code. In this case, the 306 code has been Overlayed with one of the following codes: 474 or 639. New phone numbers in the Monchy area will be assigned with one of these codes: 306, 474 or 639. As a result, placing a call in the Monchy area will require 10-digit dialing (where you enter both the area code and then the phone number).

That said, we have some confidence that we have placed the marker near the actual location. A typical reason for being unable to verify a location is that it might be on private property or maybe historic and gone without an obvious trace.
