The scandal to me (unrelated to Chelsea directly) is that Canada CBP has higher level access in the US NCIC than most domestic law enforcement agencies.

How do you get that from the letter posted? The letter claims she admitted she was incarcerated. That said its no surprise Canada and the USA share their criminal record databases. At least on the Canadian side its been a point of controversy around granted pardons which the US does not recognize.

> unrelated to Chelsea directly

I think you skipped over the above or maybe I wasn’t clear, I didn’t mean to imply the letter said that, I have first hand knowledge to my statement.

Could you possibly expand a bit more on what sort of data in excess of normal law enforcement agencies is shared? I certainly don't want to pry on the situation you are thinking of specifically, but I am curious about the subject on a macro level.

On the Canadian side this debate is normally painted as the Americans wanting yet more data. So of course I am curious to hear the debate from the opposite side.

That's the sound of one hand waving bye-bye.

These dismissive comments are unhelpful. The nice thing about HN is substantive discussion can happen, whereas I rarely expect it elsewhere. But preemptive comments like yours can prevent this from happening.
