[stevelindsay]

Will They Tell The People They Targeted For This data Collection or will they .. OR WILL THEY DO IT BEHIND THEIR BACK.
If they want private data from certain people they need to get permission from the people they are collecting the data from.
If They follow the law these people they are collecting FINANCIAL information from will know and provide clearance, . WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF THE PEOPLE TARGETED THEY ARE INDEED STEALING THE PRIVATE INFORMATION WITHOUT CONSENT.
THAT'S AGAINST THE LAW.

If the Conservative's hate the Liberal's Climate Change plan so much, why don't they present their own alternative to Canadians instead of relying on the old plan of their former colleague who lost his job almost 3 years ago?
