I followed Harry Needham(?)'s suggestion visit the Canadian War Museum
site  and found that I could not get past the initial welcome and so forth
without "becoming a member." This involves no money but requires you
to fill out a long questionnaire giving one's age, education, income, mail
address, phone numbers, household income and I don't know what-all.

I just signed off, but I was quite irritated by such presumptive
intrusiveness. Do Canadian public institutions routinely demand such
personal information? Do Canadian citizens routinely submit to such
impertinence?
