I had hoped to be able to review and comment upon the Canadian Spam Task Force's report which just came out, but it has been a really crazy day. CIPPIC has some comments and some links:
CIPPIC News - CIPPIC:"The Task Force appointed by the federal government to advise it on how to combat spam issued its report today. Among other things, the Task Force recommends new anti-spam legislation with meaningful penalties, new powers for consumers to sue spammers, more resources to government agencies tasked with fighting spam, industry self-regulation, and greater international cooperation to track down and stop those responsible for the floods of unwanted messages clogging Canadians' e-mail inboxes.
