There are a few streets technically in the Township of East Hawkesbury (but really part of the QC community of Point Fortune, QC) that have 450 exhanges. If you drive down chemin Interprovinciale (the name gives itself away) leading from exit 1 on Autoroute 40, you'll see that houses on the west side are in Ont and on the east side they are in QC.

St. Regis, QC uses 613 575 which is an Ontario exchange. This community is part of the Cornwall area Indian reserve, but is only accessible via Hogansburg, NY (with no customs, border crossing etc). It is technically part of QC, but when I was last there all the cars on the driveway have Ontario plates. It is a strange enclave. When you leave St. Regis, QC, you are in the US and you need to go through the US to get anywhere else in QC or Ont. Snye, QC is not accessible from St. Regis, QC.
