A friend of mine alerted me to a small problem that might turn into a potentially big one. MDA's Space Division may be sold to Alliant... which wouldn't be all too bad, really, were it not for the fact that under US law, that would mean Canadian access to the recently launched RADARSAT-2's data would be severely limited.

That... is hardly acceptable. We lauched the bloody thing, we invested a pile of cash to get it working, up in space, and enter the new security era... which the U.S. has been itching for us to do... and now we might not even be able to do it?

That's just a load of bollocks.
