CRTC Serves Notice That It's Serious About Spam
05 April 2021
by Bernice Karn and Olivia Ells (Articling Student)
Following a 14-month investigation, on March 29, 2021 the Canadian
Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) issued a
Notice of Violation (NOV) under Canada's anti-spam legislation (CASL)
to Scott William Brewer (Brewer) for allegedly sending or causing or
permitting the sending of commercial electronic messages (CEMs) over
the course of three separate incidents without the consent of the
recipients. The NOV is noteworthy because it includes an
administrative monetary penalty of $75,000 against Mr. Brewer in his
personal capacity.

Subject: Verizon wins ruling over AT&T for 'fastest' 5G
NEW YORK - The National Advertising Division (NAD) of BBB National
Programs determined that Verizon Communications, Inc. provided a
reasonable basis for the comparative performance claim that its 5G
Ultra Wideband provides the "Fastest 5G in the World." NAD concluded
that Verizon's evidence was a good fit for the claim, and that the
challenged television commercial clearly and conspicuously discloses
that Verizon's 5G Ultra Wideband is "available only in parts of select
cities." The claim at issue was challenged by AT&T Services, Inc.
