About 819 Area Code:
Area code 819 covers northwestern Quebec, including major cities like Gatineau, Sherbrooke, and Trois-Rivières. As of 2021, Gatineau is the fourth-largest city in Quebec with a population of 291,041. Gatineau’s economy was once almost entirely reliant on the pulp and paper industry. However, its close proximity to the national capital and its role as the principal city of Quebec's Outaouais region have attracted numerous federal and provincial government offices. To balance federal employment across both sides of the Ottawa River, the federal government initiated a policy that resulted in the construction of several large office towers in downtown Gatineau to accommodate federal civil servants. With a population of 172,950, according to the 2021 Canada Census, Sherbrooke is the sixth-largest city in the province.
As of 2010, the largest employers in Sherbrooke include Université de Sherbrooke with 6,000 employees, Centre hospitalier universitaire de Sherbrooke with 5,511 employees, Commission scolaire de la Région-de-Sherbrooke with 3,050 employees, and Centre de santé et de services sociaux – Institut universitaire de gériatrie de Sherbrooke with 2,650 employees. The City of Sherbrooke is also a significant employer. From the late 1920s until the early 1960s, Trois-Rivières was renowned as the global hub of the pulp and paper industry, boasting five active mills. Today, only three mills remain operational due to a decline in newsprint demand and the effects of globalization. During the 1980s and 1990s, Trois-Rivières also experienced a downturn in its textile industry as jobs moved offshore, leading to a rise in unemployment to 14 percent during the 1990s. In response, Trois-Rivières is pursuing industrial revitalization by developing technology parks and leveraging its strategic location between Montreal and Quebec City, as well as its university and port facilities.
