Legal researchers Cynthia Khoo and Kate Robertson warn that a Canada-U.S. CLOUD agreement would extend the reach of U.S. law enforcement into Canada’s digital terrain to an unprecedented extent, and that if signed, this agreement would effectively allow U.S. police to demand personal data directly from any provider of an “electronic communication service” or “remote computing service” in Canada, so long as it had some ties to the U.S.

          I agree.

          It’s cheaper to pay someone else to do that, but at this point we can’t accept US infrastructure in our government.

            Yup, that’s my point. Keep that stuff in Canadian hands.
