997

The number 997 is a three-digit emergency phone number used in some countries, primarily in Canada and parts of the Caribbean, to quickly connect callers with emergency services such as police, fire, or medical assistance. When dialed, it rings through to a local emergency response center, enabling rapid help during urgent situations. Similar to 911 in the United States and 112 in Europe, 997 is part of the emergency communication infrastructure, designed for swift and reliable reporting of emergencies.
