Today, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) signed a memorandum of understanding with the United Kingdom’s Information Commissioner’s Office to combat commercial electronic messages and unwanted telemarketing calls.
This partnership will promote close cooperation and a coordinated approach in the enforcement of spam and telemarketing laws in both jurisdictions to limit the amount of unwanted emails and nuisance calls received by Canadian and UK residents.
As part of the agreement, both agencies agree to share information and provide investigative support, upon request, and in accordance with the law. The memorandum of understanding provides for research and education opportunities, as well as staff exchanges and joint training initiatives for both parties.
