The telephone company (Alberta Government Telephones) runs a talking yellow pages service, with the usual stuff on it, 403-521-5222. The transit system runs what appears to be a DID-based automated bus schedule. One or two numbers are assigned for each bus stop, and a synthesized voice reads back arrival information. An example: 403-260-5281. Others apparently lie in the 5000 and 6000 blocks of the same exchange. The transit system main information number is 403-276-7801. This is not automated. Sam Ho
