I'm seeing red! (Day 6)

I joined the Red Dot Campaign (http://www.reddotcampaign.ca/) today.  This is a privately funded social venture promoting the reduction of junk mail.  Their mandate is to raise awareness of Canada Post's eco-friendly Consumer Choice option that reduces waste and clutter.  All you need to do is put a "no admail" or "no junk mail" sign on your mailbox.  The signs can be downloaded from the website and taped to your mailbox.

I also signed up for the Canadian Marketing Association's Do Not Contact Registry (http://www.the-cma.org/?WCE=C=47%7CK=224217), to reduce unwanted marketing offers from their members.

Then, I thought, what the heck, and signed up for the CRTC's Do Not Call List (http://www.ioptout.ca/).  The website is not up and running yet, but you can contact them at 1-866-580-3625.
