Thank you_Angella. I knew that already. But That wasn't my question.

I wasn't looking for the statutes establishing rules governing the keeping of registers, accounts, books and records by a permit holder. What I am looking for is more of inhouse politics, SOP's in other words. You being an agent, I presume, not assuming. Might actually know this. I am trying to get a clearer picture of this company, which in an amusing way have contacted me through this web site. ;-)

You can not possibly tell me that, as a lawyer, even a US one, that you can't look up the statutes and see that they are required to keep those logs...?

canlii.org

You can find the relevant legislation (and precedents) there.

Does anybody know if global keeps a phone log, i.e.: recorded phone conversations, two tier client phone book logs? etc...

Canada is what is better known as a democratic socialist country, whereas you do have a democratic elected governing body, but your governments political involvement in your ever day life is immense. i.e.: individuals tax burden, I believe somewhere between 40% and 50%, not to forget your GST and PST.. It’s a little like the present day Democrats, 60’s socialites’ / wannabe communist who now are old and rich and want to tear down the American fundamental way of life by imposing stringent rules and regulations as well as increase our tax burden on/by socialist idea’s. In other words bypass the will of the people and change our bill of rights and Constitution by a majority in Congress and the Senate, Good example would be Nancy Pelosi.

Your Gun laws, Your right to free speech being impeded by your federal government, i.e.: journalist being brought forward to the Canadian Human rights dept. on frivolous charges, Federally unproductive dept’s run by left wing individuals who don’t care. Government workers, whether provincial or Federal who are unproductive and un-resourceful. Mind you we have the same problem in government here too and we are an open market economy. Your Governments rules and regulations on imports and business regulations, by where big Canadian business sets these regulations with your parliament officials, a little bit like our lobbyist; the difference is that your countries political behavior is more indicative to being the left arm of big local business in by creating a protectionist economy. Nevertheless I prefer my system to yours; The will of the people for the people and by the people! Not Government deciding what’s good for you and what’s not.

As for our Economy, we are a consumer base society, in other words we consume more than what we produce. Just like your Insurance laws and your Banking laws infringe on your fundamental rights, we opened our economy to everybody and now we are paying the price for this deregulation. And by the way so will you! 300 million pure consumers who are going cold turkey, to 30 million of you educated Canadian consumers do the math. This isn’t a USA problem, this is a world economic problem, and just like in the past we will wake up and smell the coffee.

killgore,
I've had a few clashes with class action lawyers, and provided expert witness services for others.

On the one side, you're within your rights to bring class actions.
On the other side, I'm not a terribly big fan of class action lawyers.

BTW.... I resent your comment about Canadians being socialistic. We're democratic just like the U.S.

BTW... how's the economy in the U.S. right now? are you helping it as a class action lawyer?

Certainly more litigious, anyway.

montyloree_ So if I understand your telecom company regulate what you can and cannot do? See this is what I mean by confusing. I really dislike Socialist countries. There’s no real defined line.

Angella_, I am a real non fictitious trial lawyer. Remember, the Law is the Law, without it you have chaos; I just bring Order back into it and make people who break the Law pay alot of money. I guess US Attorney’s are scarier than our Canadian counterparts. Lol.

Nah. Not into game playing.

My advice remains the same... use caution. He may be legit... but he may not be.

And considering that most of the lawyers I've dealt with or worked for in the past weren't so much into game playing either.... I'm leaning towards "not".

I'm not sure if angella mentioned that this is CRTC regulations.

Canadian Radio-Television Telecommunications Canada

I called my phone company - Sasktel, and they explained this as well.

Angella - "In Canada, as long as one party to the conversation knows they're being recorded, recordings are legally admissible in court"

Not the same in The US. Depends on the state, some do allow such wire tapings, NJ and some other states do not it's actually a Misdemeanor to as much as a Felony offense, pending the seriousness and usage of the information. In other words PRISON TIME! Instead of Miller Time. get it. lol.
