"Shooting G8 Protesters?"

Geee - I guess we've all now been logged and flagged by the Canadian
Security Establishments listening posts scattered across the country as well
as up here in the Arctic.

Expect a visit from CSIS or the FBI depending on which side of the border
you are on!

PS - on a funny note, when there was a big news flurry about Echelon, CSE,
NSA, and GCHQ a few years back, one enterprising reporter here phoned up the
Arctic listening post at Broughton Island to ask if they really were
intercepting phone calls and e-mails for the Americans and Brits. They were
immediately asked how they got the classified number - you aren't supposed
to know we're here? "hmmm", says reporter" I got it from the NWT Phone
Book". And there it was in the Government pages - Canadian Security
Establishment, Broughton Island, with a whole bunch of office numbers. Gotta
love those secret squirrel types!!
