Canadian American Business Council on Bill C-22: It “Threatens Our Bilateral Partnership on Data Security”

Such uninformed nonsense. No wonder these folks can’t make a living from writing.
Are we to infer from Michael Geist’s quote from DC Reid that the noted scholar agrees with the financial statement analysis presented? Or is this just more of the same scattershot criticism, hoping something at some point will hit the mark?
I DO agree with Mr. Reid when he writes:
“These are big figures and illustrate once more that writers could use some advice from a lawyer and an accountant telling them what is in their best interests.”
I encourage consultation with a lawyer and/or accountant right away. It’s always best to know what you’re talking about before you talk.
