Telecommunications Act (Canada)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Telecommunications Act of 1993 is an Act of the Parliament of Canada that regulates telecommunications by ensuring reliable services, protecting privacy, and to protect and encourage the Canadian media. The Act is administered by the CRTC which reports to the Department of Industry. It replaced the Railway Act of 1906, which governed telecommunication prior to 1993, making it the first full legislative scheme addressing telecommunications.
In November of 2005 an amendment was passed to allow for the creation of a national Do-not-call list under section 41.
