  17. Don’t Use Patriot Act as an Excuse http://tinyurl.com/cloudandPA “the Canada Anti-Terrorism Act (ATA), which also became law a few months after the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist acts, amended a range of federal statutes and is very similar to the Patriot Act in the U.S.” “In reality, ‘most of the provisions of the U.S.A. Patriot Act are mirrored in Canadian law’”.
