Did you try the other fax number for expedited service? I tried the regular number and it is coming up busy.
Also as per the link below, you should be able to drop off the form in Ottawa itself:
http://www.cbs.gov.on.ca/mcbs/english/4ULMNQ.htm
By fax for regular service:
1-807-343-7459
By fax for expedited service:
1-807-343-7411
Regular service requires a minimum of 16 weeks for processing and delivery.
Expedited service is available with proper proof of urgency and requires 10 days for processing and delivery to your door.

would you mind looking in your phone book please and giving me any and all numbers for Vital Statistics? I'd appreciate it. I am trying to get a copy of my birth certificate and have been told my options are two:
a) I fax an application to a number in Thunder Bay that's been constantly busy since I started trying on Friday
b) My mother drives from Ottawa to Toronto to pick one up for me. For any Americans reading this, that's about 300 miles.,,
There has *got* to be a better way. I asked the Mexicans if they would accept anything else as proof of citizenship, and they made rude remarks about third world countries. I find it hard to disagree. The consulate in Dallas is not returning calls and the Embassy in DC suggested my mother....
Thanks
Dana
PS - the 800 number does not work in the states.
