Hello,

You can request that your personal data not be shared with any foreign
powers. Simply write a letter to the minister responsible:

The Hon. Maxime Bernier,
Minister of Industy,
House of Commons,
Ottawa Ont., K1A 0A6.

I the letter state that it is a formal declaration of legal
copyright of your personal information and that sharing the
data outside of Canada will be acted upon using all legal means
including class action lawsuits on the behalf of all Canadians
who have, likewise, had thier personal information shared with
foreign nationals.

State that your data must not leave the country by any means
including electronic means. State also that the data must be
removed from the governments systems after 30 days of receipt
when the useful licence expires.

State that any other use of the infomation is a breach of your
terms and will be followed up legally.

Make sure all your friends write to the minister.

If you're going to create a stink make sure to
send a letter to Canada's national broadcasting company as well.

Audience Relations,
CBC,
P.O. Box 500 Station A,
Toronto, ON,
Canada, M5W 1E6


While you're at it you'd probably want to give the Prime Minister
a heads up, especially if he's going to be on national T.V.
answering questions about this.

Drop him a line an let him know your thoughts onthe subject.

Get all your friends together and let them know that
the Prime ministers office is open any time they have a
question about the security and sovereignty of Canada.

Well, now you have all the addresses. There's no excuse
not to get involved.
	Incidentally, a written letter sent by post
is taken more seriously by the government than email.
Written letters sent by post must , by standard proceedures,
be read by a number of important individuals before filing
into the official archives. (emails do not)

Make change happen.

Have fun, and all the best,

Peter
