9. CRTC
Bell Canada is responsible to the Canadian Radio-Television and
Telecommunications Commission. CRTC is based in Ottawa, where they
keep track of applications by Bell and other phone companies for such
things as rate changes or proposed tariffs for new services or revised
charging methods and service.
The CRTC can be reached in Ottawa, K1A 0N2. Any complaints should be
directed to the attention of the Secretary General there (after you
have checked out the procedure listed in the introductory section of the
White Pages). Requests for information about notices and applications
may also be made through the CRTC. You can get the Information Services
department to set you up for a mailing list for telecom decisions,
notices and press releases if you so request. If the CRTC staff have
trouble knowing what this list is, try mentioning the "L15" list.
Bell's applications and their details are not always that well-known,
at least until those applications have been decided. Case in point is
the decision to restrict access to 976 service to within the area code;
only after the change was approved did customers notice in any particular
detail. There is a greater need to know what changes to Bell's tariffs
are being applied for, and how they will affect the public. It is
necessary for people to keep their eyes open before a tariff matter
becomes a _fait_accompli_ (or in English: "a done deal").
The U.S. has introduced charges for each call to long distance directory
assistance (ie. the 555.1212 numbers in other area codes). Canada's days
of free access to LD information are numbered, considering that Bell
Canada has applied to the CRTC for charging "555.1212" calls. As this went
to press, there is still time to get opinions in on this proposal.
