加拿大新民主党领导人Avi Lewis要求政府阻止汤姆森路透公司与美国移民与海关执法局(ICE)之间的数据共享协议 [1]。该协议价值1.25亿美元 [1]，允许ICE访问汤姆森路透旗下Clear数据库，用于识别所谓的"选民欺诈"和"移民欺诈" [1]。
Lewis表示，"加拿大公司与ICE的共谋应该绝对是非法的" [1]。他要求加拿大政府采取行动，包括拒绝出口许可、撤回公共补贴或相关合同 [1]。
这份协议是汤姆森路透与ICE合作的最新动态。两家机构间的合同关系始于2015年 [1]，而这份新协议是首份明确提及用于支持特朗普政府"选民欺诈"目标的合同 [1]。新民主党曾在2025年1月也提出过类似呼吁 [1]。
Canada's New Democratic Party leader Avi Lewis has called on the federal government to prevent Thomson Reuters from proceeding with a $125 million data-sharing agreement with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). [1]
The contract grants ICE access to Thomson Reuters' Clear database to identify cases of alleged voter fraud and immigration fraud. [1] Lewis stated that "complicity between Canadian corporations and ICE should absolutely be illegal," urging Ottawa to deny export licenses, withdraw public subsidies, or cancel existing contracts with the company. [1]
The partnership between Thomson Reuters and ICE dates back to 2015. [1] However, this latest agreement marks the first contract explicitly tied to supporting the Trump administration's voter fraud objectives. [1] The NDP had previously raised similar concerns in January 2025. [1]
