I find it very annoying!
Anyone else in YOW feel the same?
Came to YYZ a few years back. I found it odd at first but do not notice it at all anymore, as I've completely internalized it.
So much so that when I go back to Ottawa I automatically dialed 613-etc much to the annoyance of some recorded voice. You'll get used to it soon.
