As use of licence-plate scanners grows among Canadian bylaw officers and police there is no consistency as to how long data is stored or who it’s shared with.

1. I see license plate scanning going on here

in the states, my town, almost every day. More now than before the NSA craziness broke. I take my kid to the mall, I get scanned, I take another kid to a public lesson, I get scanned. I park on the street to wait for my wife, scanned. I park in a public parking lot to go to a movie, scanned... and that's just this week.

2. how long until they microchip us all?

Wouldn't that be the ultimate goal?

3. The mark of the beast...

and I'm not talking about the Bible.
