Post office opening hours are Monday to Friday 0830 to 0530, though a few places open on Saturday between 0900 and 1200. The post is very reliable, and mail within the country takes only one or two days to arrive. International mail can take between three days and a week, depending on the destination.
Voice over Internet Protocol
VoIP is a new technology which allows users to verbally communicate through their computer. Essentially a telephone call made using the internet, VoIP is becoming increasingly more common in the business world due to its low costs, and easy set-up and maintenance.
Forget installation engineers and phone number changes, as long as you have a broadband connection, you can use VoIP any time, any where.
For businesses, this software is sure to eventually phase out the traditional phonecall. For as low as 4p for local and national calls, the economical potential is vast. With international calls often even less than that, VoIP is perfect if you are prone to long-distance telecommunication, or have offices, clients, partners, etc, overseas. What's more, calls made between VoIP users are typically free all you pay for is the standard internet service.
Internet
Use of the Internet has coincided with the rapid growth of e-mail. Most medium and large businesses have a web presence of some sort. Canadian companies employ a vast use of e-mail. Fax and e-mail both have a majority of the business correspondence market, and many companies will respond less promptly to snail mail.
Telephone
The international dialling code for Canada is 00 1 followed by the area code. Canada's telephone system is privately owned.
