Vonage I would think that the CRTC would not recommend routing these calls to non-emergency
I would think that the CRTC would not recommend routing these calls to non-emergency numbers. I think now that everybody knows that Voip is here, and many people are jumping onto the Voip bandwagon, they are not going to wait until fatalities occur before they do something about it. Then the public will be saying, "How come Voip is allowed to operate without proper 911 and people are dying because of it?" That won't look good for Voip or for the government for not reacting to such a serious situation.
Therefore I think that the CRTC is going to have it so that the Voip providers can patch their 911 calls directly to the appropriate emergency dispatch for your local "living" area.
It is still going to be very difficult to maintain all of this considering that people can travel with their adapters. I know I plan on taking mine to Florida.
My 911 is supposed to be working, but I just tried it again now and it is not working. Even though I received an email from Vonage last week stating that it was now on my line. That is worrisome. I think we better all test our 911 service to ensure it works. It will not be fun to dial 911 in a huge crisis only to find out that the call cannot be completed. What a huge oversight this was that Vonage sent out emails stating that 911 is working on my line when it is not. Others have had this happen too. I have been reading about it. I did send them an email last week. I think I better give them a call about this because it is rather serious.
