Canada's Largest Cities Seeing the End of the Phone Book 206

Posted by timothy
from the straight-to-the-pulping-machine dept.
innocent_white_lamb writes "Telephone directories are available on the Internet, and many phones even store their own directories. There is less and less demand for a printed phone book, so residential phone books will no longer be printed and delivered in Canada's seven largest cities. Do we now expect everyone's grandma to look up phone numbers on the Internet? Of course, the Yellow Pages, where businesses pay for a listing, will still be delivered."

Possessions increase to fill the space available for their storage. -- Ryan
