Ottawa Firefighters and Ottawa Police Association and other similar names that include the phrases Firefighters and Police are used to sell products that the caller claims are charity related. I have read several newspaper reports and articles and then talked to two of them and I have concluded the newspaper reports were correct. These are businesses disguising themselves as charitable organizations (however, they do not give you a charity receipt as they are neither a charitable organization, nor a not-for-profit). They they are businesses that want to make money out of people who think they are helping charities). Just hang up on them. The only charity here is the poor low paid caller who makes minimumwage, or even less than minimum wage to call people. They are probablyon comission, and if you buy something, a very small fraction of what you pay goes to the caller to keep him off the welfare roll.

They called yesterday. Asking for Mr. so and so .... when I asked who was calling, they refused to identify themselves and kept asking me who I was. As I kept asking them back the question, the gentleman hung up. How rude to think I should identify myself when they don't even have the courtesy of identifying themselves! After all, they're call my house!
