This number belongs to Ottawa This Week, a community newspaper that's apparently going to be launched in Ottawa in the near future. They're looking for people to deliver their papers.I reported these people to the National Do Not Call List complaints line, who confirmed that the call isn't exempt even though they're a newspaper because they're not soliciting subscriptions. Matt at Ottawa This Week seems to think they are exempt because they're a) a newspaper and b) they're not selling anything.Matt assured me yesterday (call #2) and again today (call #3) that I would be on their list. I'm not holding my breath on this.

I called the twit back and he claimed he was not soliciting. Yes, he was. He was not soliciting for newspaper subscriptions, but for delivery people. I filed a complaint with the National Do Not Call List, although that's pretty much useless since there's been hundreds of thousands of complaints about solicitors logged, almost no fines, and what was fined, most is uncollected. The impotent Canadian government at its finest.

Have you received any calls since? They told me the same thing!

this number just called my home

Then move!

They are calling us every day for the last 3 weeks.  Too bad my block is full of other asshats.
