Edward Islanders frustrated by how difficult it is to find information
on the government web site about who has received money from immigrant
investors have been handed a new tool.
The immigrant partner section of P.E.I.'s Provincial Nominee Program
has been the subject of controversy this fall. Potential immigrants
were able to come to P.E.I. by putting up money for investment in a
local company, but questions have been raised about the quality of the
companies eligible for investment, and the involvement of government
MLAs in them.
Searching for potential beneficiaries of immigrant partner funds has
been difficult because the government website only allows for searches
of corporations by company name, and many of them are numbered.
'The government corporation search doesn't allow search by shareholder,
and I guess I'm the kind of person when faced with an issue like that,
rather than just stopping there, I always sort of try and use whatever
skills I have to try and route around the problem,' local web developer
and blogger Peter Rukavina told CBC News Monday.
On Friday Rukavina launched his solution. He indexed all the pages on
the provincial government website and developed his own search tool for
it, which allows for searches by shareholder. The site is attracting
many users — 32,000 hits since Friday.
OpenCorporations.org makes it easier to find out which companies may
have received money under the Provincial Nominee Program. CBC News
searched for common Chinese names and came up with hundreds of
businesses with new Chinese shareholders.
Despite the easy, if unofficial, availability of this new information,
a government spokesperson said there are no plans to enable similar
searches on the government website.
Something should be done about this.

Staggering, scary, and incredible that so much information can be found online; not just immigration issues, but finances, locations, purchasing history, etc...
