So I’m seeing some news (like this) saying that a database containing private information about Albertan voters got leaked to the Alberta separatists? And then the separatists made it into a searchable, public database? News outlets generally seem averse to speculation so none of them touch on how this happened.
So that’s my question: how could something like this happen? What went down?
Elections Canada is pretty solid. I dealt with them for election and EDA stuff. They always seemed very competent, well meaning, and responsible. I wouldn’t be surprised if that attitude has spread to the provincial bodies as well.
