Wireless and wireline

How the allocation was built up
The register dates none of Burgessville’s assignments: all 1 prefixes predate CNAC’s record-keeping, the signature of an old, settled network where nothing has been added in decades.
Execulink Telecom Inc. is the only carrier ever recorded for Burgessville: no competitor has obtained a prefix here. A single-carrier rate centre is typical of small communities where only the incumbent ever built a network.
Burgessville has just 1 prefix (10,000 numbers): a very small rate centre, typical of a village or rural area served by a single switching office.
The local market is an allocation monopoly: Execulink Telecom Inc. holds every prefix, and no competitor has ever requested a code for Burgessville.
