Alberta voters list data on 2.9 million people was allegedly obtained by a separatist-linked group, and the cleanup is far from finished.

The Centurion Project built an app using the list. Elections Alberta traces leaks by seeding fake names into every copy it distributes.

Rob Breakenridge maps the chain from the leak to the referendum expected later this year, and asks what happens when the language from Ottawa stops being enough.
