advisory for the City of Clarence-Rockland mayor and council. Based on the writ, Mayor Marcel Guibord has demanded a list of all phone calls to and from staff at City Hall during the period from July 1 to August 12. The demand also requires city clerk Mo- nique Ouellet to provide copies of all her email correspondence for that period. Ac- cording to a Radio-Canada report the exact
reason for the demand for the emails and the phone call lists is not given in the legal advisory. The Vision has left a message Aug. 30 with the mayor’s office on the matter. Mayor Gui- bord left a callback notice after hours in re- sponse but was in a meeting Sept. 3 when the Vision called back and was not available for comment by press time. A message was also left Aug. 30 with the
Ontario regional office of the Canadian Union of Public Employees (CUPE) for com- ment on thematter and also to explain if the union has any concerns that the demand interferes with employees’ right to privacy under the provincial or federal Freedom of Information and Protection of Privacy legis- lation. As of press time Tuesday there was no re- ply from CUPE.

OTTAWA | The Charron sisters are trying to raise the public profile of a special week in September that few people may know about.

Police remind the public that large banks, government agencies, and major compa- nies do not use email to contact individuals if there are any problems. Phone requests to schedule face-to-face meetings to review the situation are standard procedure and no personal I.D. information is ever asked for either by email or over the phone in such cases. Anyone who receives this kind of email should contact the group identified in the message as the alleged sender and let them know about the suspect situation right away. Then contact police and file a report.

Email may be the most popular means of communication for many people now. It is also becoming the most popular method for some con artists to ply their trade. The OPP have issued a warning about a suspicious email going out from an un- named Canadian telephone courier. The email follows one of the traditional patterns of the “bank manager con” routine, stating that there is a problem with a person’s ac- count and they need to provide some per- sonal information to help clear up the prob- lem. The email lists credit card numbers, social insurance number, driver’s licence number, and various other kinds of privileged and private personal identification as necessary to fix the problem.
