Everyone should opt out at http://delivery.ypg.com/
I just did after starting to write that they should have an easy way to opt out lol! Such a waist. Two were on my door step and went straight into the recycle. Handy they showed up on a Tuesday before the Thurday pickup at least. This is not a good use for our precious trees!
Aren't they made with recycled paper anyway (which again gets recycled after their use)?
I suspect delivery's the bottleneck. It's just so easy to dump piles of books at apartment & office blocks (predisposing the delivery process towards "all or nothing"), else Telus could charge $2/book payable at least two months ahead of distribution (which would probably get maybe half the current customers to decline delivery). A pity there's no 'Telus' store handy anymore where we could buy a phone book over the counter (they could add that service to the various outlets selling Telus services, though).
Lots of businesses do not have online service in their store or restaurant (so surely they'd like to have a local phonebook at hand?).
jbw
ps. I wish they would restore phone books to payphones (agh! now $0.50/local call).
