If I am abroad, is there a way for me to call a number in Canada making it seem that I am calling from in Can?

Question

I am a Canadian citizen abroad. I want to call a Can. govt agency for info on forms, but they only accept calls from inside Canada and cut the line when I call from outside. They say my local embassy can help, but the embassy has no clue about my questions about the form. Is there a way anyone knows to make it seem like my call is originating in Canada, similar to when you alter your IP address on the internet?

Answer 1

no, so what is your question? or shall i have not asked? the embassy is very capable of answering your request.............if the embassy is not capable? who is?

you can alter your IP, but it will not help.

Answer 2

You could set up an internet phone line like vonage.  There you can set up your number to be from anywhere.  So give yourself a Canadian number, and call canada.

Answer 3

Get a VoIP account with a Canadian phone number. You can then call anywhere in the world and Caller ID will make it look like you are calling from Canada.
