>> It's also been involved in international drug smuggling.

This person is probably mentioning the arrest of a Vice music site editor on cocaine smuggling (as you can see, parent's take on this is very different from reality):

Makes me question everything else you are commenting here on.

I can't open your link due to a stupid firewall restriction whilst I'm travelling, but I was talking about this article. If it has been debunked since, then I apologize for the error. I stand by my overall point. The Canadian Government is far, far more careful than one of ten thousand companies tracking people around the world, including Canada.
