It should be. Telemarketers are wasting company time/resources to listen to an advertisement. Besides Canadian laws are usually modeled after American laws, so I wouldn't be surprised if there is a similiar law in the states. Can you imagine a Pizza Hut getting cold calls and tying up their line during their prime time of 6-9pm (when telemarketers call). It should be disallowed to cold call businesses, point final.
