Tired of unsolicited phone calls?

telemarketer3

Sick and tired of the telemarketer phone calls you receive at home while trying to enjoy a quiet dinner with your family? I sure was. So on December 17th 2008 I added my home phone number to Canada’s National Do Not Call Registry. After which telemarketers have 31 days to remove my home phone number from their call lists. I’m waiting to see the results.

It has been a few months now since Canada has implemented the National Do Not Call Registry. Implemented in September 2008, it was supposed to be the biggest privacy story of 2008 with the largest impact on Canadians. Whether it has, in fact, had an impact is subject to debate. Either way, having the option, in my opinion, is definitely a good thing. I’ve attached a few links below if you are interested in registering your phone number. Anyway, I’m interested to know your thoughts or opinions.
