School Board Email Leak Exposes Parents | Canada News
Description
A Montreal school board sent a catastrophic email leak exposing parents’ personal data — names, birth dates, SSNs, phone numbers, and country of birth — prompting an urgent recall and a three-year credit monitoring offer to victims. Officials are taking it seriously, reporting to Quebec’s access-to-information commission and urging parents to confirm deletion of the email. Extra security measures include free credit locks with major Canadian bureaus. This breach underscores how easily sensitive info can be compromised — even in trusted institutions — and why vigilance is non-negotiable.
