However, I was correct insofar as Bell Canada (Ontario and Quebec) is concerned. We pay a 60-cent charge for calls to directory assistance when the number requested is in the current phone book. There is no charge if the number is not found, or if it is a new listing. Until two months ago, residential phones were allowed three free such calls a month; now all are charged for.
