National Do Not Call List

The National Do Not Call List (DNCL) is a list of telephone numbers of Canadian consumers who want to reduce the number of telemarketing calls they receive. Organizations that make telemarketing calls are not allowed to call phone numbers registered on the National DNCL. Registration is free and numbers remain on the list for a five year period. For more information, visit the National Do Not Call List website at www.lnnte-dncl.gc.ca.

Exceptions

Consumers registered on the National DNCL will receive fewer telemarketing calls but there are some exceptions, including:

  • Canadian registered charities
  • Political parties, riding associations and candidates
  • Organizations conducting market research, surveys or public opinion polls
  • Newspapers calling to sell a subscription
  • Organizations that a consumer has an existing business relationship with. A consumer is considered to have an existing business relationship with a telemarketer if he/she:
    • Purchased, leased, or rented a product or service in the last eighteen months from the telemarketer;
    • Have a written contract with the telemarketer for a service that is still in effect or expired within the last eighteen months; and/or
    • Asked a telemarketer about a product or service within the last six months.
