I highly doubt your doc has sold your info to anybody, only contacted a third party who is offering to manage any transferring of files should you need it. The alternative is that your info will just be destroyed once he has officially retired.
I think you have to keep patient records for a certain number of years before you can destroy them. Even if he retires i believe it would have to be kept in storage somewhere. I know for us it is 9 years.

A call to the privacy commissioner is likely the best thing to do. Also, post an update here as i am curious as well.
