Many people are concerned with the privacy, or lack thereof, that could occur with storing personal documents into a non-physical storage unit. I can see, though with companies such as ours and Metacloud, we are working toward a more secure and easy to use cloud system for both personal and professional use. Spursh Parikh www.sererra.com

Minister MacKay Visits Canadian Forces Members in Afghanistan for Remembrance Day

OTTAWA, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 11/11/12 -- The Honourable Peter MacKay, Minister of National Defence, concluded a visit to Afghanistan today. During his visit, Minister MacKay met with senior Canadian Forces officers and Afghan officials, and attended a Remembrance Day Ceremony with Canadian military members serving on Operation Attention, Canada's contribution to the NATO Training Mission in Afghanistan.

"It was an honour for me to take part in the Remembrance Day ceremony with the men and women who serve Canada as part of the Training Mission in Afghanistan," said Minister MacKay. "Canada's mission is a solid reminder of the commitment, professionalism and dedication of our men women in uniform - past and present - who have supported and continue to support and protect peace around the globe."

During his visit, Minister MacKay also had an opportunity to meet with Canadian troops during a barbecue held in honour of Remembrance Day.

Operation Attention, Canada's participation in the NATO Training Mission in Afghanistan, delivers training and professional development services to the national security forces of Afghanistan, especially the Afghan National Army and the Afghan National Police. Its primary objective is to prepare the Afghan national security forces for a seamless transition of authority by the end of 2014.
