But if one drives down to Buffalo, let's say, from Toronto, the only information that's asked for of Canadian residents by the airlines flying out of Buffalo is limited to exactly what you say, and there's no mining of that information and no holding of that information.
I interrupted you. Pardon my insolence in doing that. But to hold some of that information for a positive ID for 99 years suggests that somebody is going to be a threat until they're 120, at least. It just absolutely baffles anybody who has a sense of reason about him or her about the nature of a threat by any individual in this world. But it's inscribed in their act, in the Patriot Act, and how they apply it to everybody.
How do we get around the fact that this will work for Pearson, a little bit as well for Montreal, and probably as well for Vancouver, where, from those three cities, Canadians can opt out of Canadian travel companies and drive down to the closest American provider? Are we off base here in thinking that the commercial transaction trumps privacy issues?
