Default 222

Perusing Wayne Francis' site, I stumbled across "Gordon Lightfoot talks about Shadows". Discussing his canoeing, he says :

"So it's an interesting thing - it's really good for your health, and now I've done about 3500 miles of it, but I'm pushing for the 4000 mile mark this summer on the Kazan which is about a 500 mile trip. If you have anything like, go wrong, that's very serious, we carry an emergency locator. Which we would use only in certain instances - like you wouldn't use it if a guy had a toothache, you'd give him a "222" or something."

What is a "222" ?
