    My fellow Canadistanis, have you reg'd your phone # with the DO NO CALL list yet?

    I don't know if this has been posted already or not, don't really care. I doubt it can be overposted. Yes, I'm talking about telemarketers, and eliminating a good chunk of the more annoying ones from calling you ever again.

    Here's the link:
    https://www.lnnte-dncl.gc.ca/index-eng

    Registering a phone # takes about 30 seconds. It takes a month for it to go into full effect.

    Do not expect calls to stop immediately.

    Telemarketers have up to 31 days to update their lists and to make sure they do not call you. You could still receive calls within those first 31 days.

    Registering on the National Do Not Call List (DNCL) will not eliminate all telemarketing calls. There are exemptions within the Rules that may allow calls from organizations such as charities, those with whom you have existing business relationships, political parties and newspapers.

    You can further reduce unwanted telemarketing calls by asking these organizations to place your number(s) on their own do not call list.
    I just reg'd mine and my parent's #'s. What the hell it's free.

                I really hate to be the guy to give you all bad news, but most of the telemarketing is not done from Canada. The fines don't scare most of the companies because they'll never end up paying them anyway.

                All I see the DNC list as being is a valid list of phone numbers for shady telemarketers to use.

                  I'll beg to differ, if only from the perspective of being in Canada I get about roughly 40-50% of telemarketing calls from Canadian area codes. Specifically Ontario and Manitoba.

                  Actually Winnipeg has several major call centers located here.


                  Give it a couple or three months and I'll let you know what changes if any this has had. Hey it can't hurt to register can it?

                        I have doubts it will change anything. I get calls on a regular basis from phone numbers like 000-000-0000. It doesn't seem like those kinds of companies are following the law to begin with.
                        you don't know you're wearing a leash if you sit by the peg all day..

                            For years now I've kept my phone numbers unlisted and blocked and the only calls I've ever received have been from CIBC trying to flog me some insurance or shit (I have a Visa Card thru CIBC) and awhile ago some group in the US got my number and so I get a call from them every few months or so... But that's it..

                            So no, I don't think I'll put my numbers on the do not call list so that others can find my number.

                              I never get any calls like that
                              but registered my number anyways.
                              ya never know when they might start calling.

                                I regd but I find most of my calls are from charities anyway, which are exempt. Won't hurt though. Hopefully it blocks The Police Association.
