Wal-Mart loves to spy on anybody who may seem to be a threat to the corporation.

Former Wal-Mart Worker Blows Whistle on Company Surveillance Operation, Spying of Critics | Democracy Now!

A former worker at Wal-Mart is claiming the retail giant is running a sophisticated surveillance operation that targets employees, journalists, stockholders and critics. The worker, Bruce Gabbard, says the retail giant spied on employees, journalists, stockholders and critics of the company. We speak with the Wall Street Journal reporter who broke the story.

It looks like the Harper government though the Privy Council Office is taking the same approach with MPs and doing it at taxpayer expense. There seems to be few limits that Harper will go to achieve the kind of control needed to rule Canada through intimidation and manipulation instead of good democratic governance.

Harper Government Media Monitoring: Opposition Accuses Tories Of Spying On MPs

OTTAWA — Opposition parties accused Stephen Harper’s government of spying on its own MPs and being poor money managers Thursday after The Huffington Post Canada revealed Conservatives had spent $23 million on media monitoring in two years — including millions to track their own backbench MPs.

“Instead of helping young people and middle class families, the Conservatives are wasting more than $3,000 a day of taxpayers’ money to spy on their own MPs,” Liberal House leader Dominic LeBlanc said in the House of Commons.

Is every news story a comparison with Harper- If so you need help.
Perhaps the laws violated- the fact the companies do monitor employees work at the workplace and those working at home - You took an excellent news story and tuned it yet again into partisan BS.
Waste of bandwidth.

lol Perhaps Wally and Cobalt should get together in one room. I mean, one says everything wrong is DUHbama's fault and the other says everything wrong is Harpy's fault.
