They are not exempt. A check with revenue Canada shows no official registration for Recycling Matters as a charity itself. In order for them to be exempt, they must identify themselves as working for Community Living Ontario and it is Community Living Ontario that should be doing the work.What is happening is Community Living Ontario is outsourcing its fund raisings to an unethical thrid party.

The only way to not call you is if the company subscribes to the DNC list. So if they don't then you're out of luck.

so far this morning I have received 4 calls, ?I don't answer when I see the number.  I am also on the DO NOT CALL list.  Why does this keep happening?????

they called almost everyday around dinner time, my daughter answers the phone and they asked for me...... but does not leave any message....

2012-01-11 20:14:41    "(416) 446-0063" <4164460063>They just called me now... I answered and a woman said 'hello' I also heard what sounded like a room full of other telemarketers chattering in the background. I said hello back to her and she hung up! What the point of calling and then hanging up... bunch of dip-s****!

CRTC rules for these people clearly indicates that they are in violation of their rules if they have "unknown" or "private"  as the display ... if they call you and do not display the name of the organisation they are calling on behalf of, you can tell them that you are reporting them to the CRTC and tell them WHY :)  then if enough people report them, they will have to put the name on the display or face a big fineBUTYou have to take the time to report this ... I do it in an attempt to get this sort of thing rectified ... I have had several fly by night companies call with with no name in the description and saying they are repairing driveways in my neighboughood and would like to give me an estimate ... I told them I was reporting them to the CRTC for violating the rules of cold calling by trying to appear anonymous .. I have not had a call in a couple of months from these morons :)If I answer the phone when the people calling from this number call again, I will tell them the same thing ... eventually they will stop if they know they face huge fines for disobeying the rules
