You mentioned there were major fines for people who send spam.
I have a quick practical question. I do not own a business so I do not have any solicitation email to send out. However, as a member of Parliament, we have soliciting to do at least once every four years, if we had fixed election dates. In the case of a minority government, elections can occur more frequently. We might have a data base of email addresses and solicit people by email. Do members of Parliament also fall under this legislation?
