I'm going to use a provincial example, because the report came out yesterday. New Brunswick was shipping personal information on 750 people from B.C. who had been treated, I guess, in New Brunswick. British Columbia was going to pay the Ministry of Health. The Ministry of Health was shipping data on tapes from New Brunswick's Ministry of Health to British Columbia, to Victoria. Guess what they did? They sent them by courier unencrypted on disk. Guess what? They were lost. So now the commissioners from New Brunswick and British Columbia issued a report yesterday about how lousy the security was. They should have been using much more modern ways of doing it. It should have been sent electronically to start with.
That's a very specific example that was all over the newspapers in both New Brunswick and British Columbia, and it led the Ministers of Health to be very embarrassed politically, to be beat up on by the opposition in their Houses, to have to make embarrassing admissions that they'd lost the damned data. Does that move you?
