Ah, that makes sense. That is one definition, but it’s not a requirement that one be personally involved.

Regret is a feeling of sadness, sorrow, or disappointment about something that happened along with a wish that it had been different. As a verb, it means to feel sorry about something.

You have an interesting definition of regret that I didn’t share.

That Trump is still alive.

I wouldn’t. I don’t use Facebook now, so why would I post anything to it upon my death?

The (613) is the area code. That is specifically allocated for use in the Ottawa area. There are precise databases/maps. Of course, an area code can have very little with where one lives these days. I live in the Pacific Northwest and have an area code for the Midwest because that is where I was when I got my cellular phone.

The 745 is the ‘exchange’. It was a way for an area code to be broken down into smaller groups. Sometimes that would be regions of a town/county/etc. or it could be for a large business, a University, government, etc.

One final note on the area code… there are a finite number of phone numbers that can be created within one area code. Sometimes a region’s population/businesses will grow and create a shortage of phone numbers. When this happens the area covered by one area code will be restructured so that on area keeps the code and the rest of the area gets a new code.
