You are making judgements about the .ca policy based on your non-.ca experiences. The .ca policy does not permit anonymous registrations. It does permit individuals to opt-out of having their personal information from being published via the public whois. Just to be clear... are corporate registrants not able to opt out?
This does not mean it becomes inaccessible - there are channels through which this data can be requested from the registry.
Are these channels limited to law enforcement? I can see legitimate instances where someone would need access in cases where law enforcement is unable or unwilling to get involved -- such as the pursuit of civil litigation or (in Canada's case) allegations of human rights violations. - Evan
