   Not gonna happen.. 'cuz they justify it the action like this:   
      
   "Due to the urgency of the pandemic, (PHAC) collected and used     
   mobility data, such as cell-tower location data, throughout the     
   COVID-19 response," a spokesperson told National Post.   
      
   "In March, the Agency awarded a contract to the Telus Data For     
   Good program to provide "de-identified and aggregated data" of     
   movement trends in Canada. The contract expired in October, and     
   PHAC no longer has access to the location data, the     
   spokesperson said."
