Lockport, Manitoba — Confidential information on hundreds of United States citizens, including social security numbers, health information and bank account numbers, is being sent mistakenly by fax to a small Manitoba company.
A 60-centimetre-high stack of data, which also includes people's addresses and salaries, already sits in the offices of North Regent Rx, a herbal remedy distribution company that operates out of a house in Lockport, 15 kilometres north of Winnipeg.

DIO:

I have absolutely nothing to add to your post ..except to say that when I read about "lockport" it brought back memories... Lockport is famous in winnipeg for its water slides :D

Also the people are pretty friendly out there ("friendly manitoba";). Its a very small place around 10 K max. pop.

Thanks.
