yes i am interested in long distance savings but how do you know my last name?

The Canadian government is trying to get a bill passed which will create a "do not call" list for telemarketers. Violations could result in $1,500 fines for individuals and $15,000 for corporations. I love how this CBC article quietly ends with the sentence, "About 270,000 people work as telemarketers in this country, according to industry estimates."
