OTTAWA (CP) - The federal government is finally developing its long-awaited National Do-Not-Call-Registry.
It's designed to help consumers tired of telemarketers calling them to pitch their products. The federal Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission held public hearings last week to get input on its proposed new regulations.
And it could take until the end of 2007 to get the registry up and running.
But a similar don't-call-me registry in the United States has been popular with as many as 100 million home phone numbers listed as not wanting calls from telemarketers.
Canada has been considering a similar program since 2001.
