Ontario-Wide Financial, 212A Carlton Street, Toronto
Another company that faxes their service offerings every day and will not remove your fax number from their distribution list. They refer you to the fax company (Infax) they pay to do their telemarketing...and the lady (and I use this term loosely) that answers the phone from her home office at 212A Carlton Street in Toronto could care less and hung up on me each time I called...Maybe if enough people lodge complaints with the CRTC she will meet the same fate as these people...

Ottawa, Ontario (AHN) - The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission fined three telemarketers a total of $28,000 for violating the country's National Do Not Call List rules. Slapped a $4,000 fine was Rob Sugar, while the company Roofing by Peerless Mason Limited was penalized twice with $10,000 per violation.
The CRTC gave Notices of Violation to the two in July, which require them to pay the fine or question the notice before a commission panel. Sugar operates a weight loss clinic in Toronto, while Roofing by Peerless Motion is a Texas-based firm that sells power vents, turtle vents, ridge vents and turbines which are cooling solutions installed on rooftops.
The two had previously been warned by the CRTC to stop contacting phone numbers listed in the Do Not Call registry which has 7 million numbers, but still continued doing so leading the commission to slap them the fines. The CRTC is probing 700 other telemarketers for similar violations.
