[asterisk-biz] VoIP 9-1-1 failure - don't let it happen to you

Hi List,

There is sad news about a death yesterday because a VoIP provider failed
to connect a 9-1-1 call to the caller's local dispatch centre. I just
wanted to put a reminder out there that it isn't expensive to make sure
your Canadian VoIP service is complying with the current CRTC
requirements by allowing your customers to reach help when they need it
the most.

For more information on 9-1-1 termination, please see

The story circulating Canadian media can be found at

Best regards,
Trevor Peirce
