^On closer inspection to that website it appears that a member of Cal's family makes an idiot of herself in the comments section, threatening 'legal action' based on an accusation that she makes which essentially boils down to her not reading properly!

You have me on your site as a $1000 contributor. I have never and never would contribute to a group such as yours. I request that my name be removed immediately or I will be contacating my legal counsel regarding your methods of illegal advertising. This is serious!

  • CivicCamp April 10, 2013 at 9:53 pm edit Hello Edith. What you probably saw was http://www.crowdsourcing.civiccamp.org . As the introduction on the site states, the purpose of this initiative is to digitize the campaign finance data from the 2010 municipal election of the City of Calgary (Alberta, Canada).
    It is not a listing of donations or contributions to CivicCamp. Please take a moment to review the introduction again. The site did, until yesterday, display publicly available records obtained from the City of Calgary’s website. All City Council candidates are required to file a Disclosure of Campaign Finances and the names of all campaign donors are required to appear on these filings if they exceed $100.

    To repeat, these are donors to municipal politicians, not CivicCamp.
    To see these records, please visit http://www.calgary.ca/CA/city-clerks...-Finances.aspx
