For some information on the story about the Supreme Court of Canada 
decision for personal privacy and against photography, go to; 
http://www.canoe.ca/TopStories/apr9_photos.html

It's pretty scary to me - okay to get model releases for 
stock.commercial etc, but classic street photography/reportage may now 
be impossible in Quebec - and by extension at some time in the furue, 
Canada.
