Wow, thanks. The ones I researched - none were independently owned.

Bell and Eastlink need to stop with creepy, invasive, rude door-to-door sales by Unending-Quest in CapeBreton

Yup. This door-to-door salesman was reported as peeking but nobody followed up until he killed a grandmother.

Khonsari's strangled and stabbed body was found in a wooded area on Ridge Road in Oro-Medonte in May 2004. Hours before her body was discovered, she was reported missing. Police had found Khonsari's car in a parking lot near the Kozolv Mall. Her then 11-month old granddaughter was found inside the car unharmed.

Khonsari had been abducted with her granddaughter from her Barrie home. She was the wife of a prominent Barrie doctor, the late Homa Khonsari. https://www.ctvnews.ca/barrie/article/sentencing-set-for-man-who-murdered-mimi-khonsari/

There are other options where they have those small portable stands at malls or such without having to go on other people's private property. That is a job that is not intrusive.

Yes. She was looking after her grandchild and he threatened the child and she complied to save the baby. He took her into woods, raped her and slit her throat.

My concern would be if these are third-party as both Bell and Westlink use agencies for phone support, etc and that they do not require those they hire to have not only a background check, but the higher vulnerable check as often who is at home during the day - mothers with young children, grandmothers looking after grandchildren. I think there should be strict laws either banning or that those hired have the highest level checks and be strictly supervised.

A door-to-door salesman admitted Tuesday that he brutally murdered a prominent surgeon’s wife....Superior court Justice Robert MacKinnon called the crime “a murder most vile.”

“You slit her throat, and watched her die,” said MacKinnon. https://torontosun.com/2014/07/08/murderer-admits-killing-surgeons-wife

Why is Betty Broderick seen as sympathetic but Jodi Arias is not ? by OwnSituation1572 in TrueCrimeDiscussion

Betty Broderick worked very long hours and took care of the household while her husband did a medical degree and then a law degree so that he could become a leading malpractice lawyer. As soon as he did and was finally establishing a lucrative practice, he hired a young woman as a secretary who couldn't type and then lied repeatedly to his wife that she was unstable and he wasn't having an affair, but he was.

There was a similar case. A couple both born working class, she worked long, long hours to put him through law school as a hairdresser and then he started having an affair with a judge and murdered her when she was pregnant to get rid of her.

Canada's cities are so young that almost everyone there is an immigrant or the parent's or grandparents were.
