I am fed up paying for a private number and getting this call 3 times a day.Will look into legal action if this does not stop immediately, I have a very sick person living here and it is interupting their life very negatively.

You should file a complaint here:https://www.lnnte-dncl.gc.ca/plt-cmp-engAnd register your number there as well if you have not done so already.

I phoned the # back and after asking for English/French selection, the automated menu asked if I wanted to add my phone number to the "Do not call" list to select menu option #1 and after confirming the phone number I typed in, it told me it would take up to 30 days to remove my number from the call list.

The company recording identified itself as:
Canadian Premier Life & Legacy General Insurance

filed a crtc complaint at https://www.lnnte-dncl.gc.ca/index-engIf everyone did this eventually the govt would get off their butts and outlaw telemarketing completely by giving big fines to the phone companies that are making massive profits on these calls.

Calls twice a day on my cell around the same time, never leaves a message. I answered once but just got dead silence. This has been happening for a month now

Called claiming they were from CIBC and then tried to get private information from me.  I said I didn't feel comfortable giving out any information to a random caller claiming to be my bank and ended the phonecall.  They still call frequently, though, never leaving messages.  They are bastards.
