1. Geez!
I thought I would have a nice quiet night but now it looks like I have to fire up my word program and fire off a raft of e-mails on this! Thank you soooo much for this, I somehow missed this story.

2. You're welcome
I was surprised by this. There are some thing that are more important than saving money. If they had to pay a bit more for a Canadian firm they should have. This must really stoke the Canadian fears about being absored into the United States as the 51st state!

4. I agree!
This is an outrage! If any company should be collecting personal information on Canadians, it MUST be a canadian company and not a military defense company from another country!

5. Posted in LBN under "US-Defence...." along with other stories in
the World Media Watch, which is usually ahead of everything else.

Too bad no one ever looks at it.
