In case you care to brushoff the new Anti-spam Law, taking a look at the penalties involved might make you think otherwise. The CRTC is the main regulatory body that is in charge of enforcing this new law, the regulatory body that will be receiving complaints to act upon. The CRTC also has been given numerous powers, including the ability to serve telecommunications providers for the preservation of data for their investigation.
All penalties are monetary as they are meant to enforce the new law, not to punish.

Just to refresh everyone, a commercial electronic message qualifies as one if its primary purpose encourages participation in a commercial activity. Although lengthy, here is a list of exemptions under the upcoming new law.

Often you will come across a business that may have a domain name and website, but still use a Gmail, Yahoo, Rogers or Bell email address. There are many reasons why you should not use one of these addresses for business purposes or even personal use, as I will explain.

Technology concepts are changing every day, and speech recognition is no different. What is speech recognition? Any technology that allows you turn talk into text! Dragon NaturallySpeaking is one of these technologies, and you may not even know that you are using it. If you have a new iPhone and are using Siri, that is a form of speech recognition. Siri is listening to your words and commands and performing the actions you are requesting. How about Android users?
