The house fiber is not in my name and I want nothing to do with evil monopoly Bell Canada. Renting is for suckers, though often unavoidable, I try to keep it to a minimum.

My ISP MNSi has mountains of red tape hurdles before they get fiber here too. I don't think either Bell or MNSi provide VoIP.

It's nice to know it still exists, as it was new 20 years ago. It seems like an obvious practical option, but I think the phone company monopolies won't promote it.

The best option then is using an application(avoid Skype) and use a microphone and headset/speakers.

Yes! An application is even better - but I'd still need the phone number somehow.
