I don't understand why this has gotten as far as it has given that the GPS system is owned by the United States and is used for military and law enforcement applications domestically. You would think that the government would just say no to this. This shouldn't have a huge impact in Canada, except perhaps near the border.

The majority of the population in Canada is "near the border" for some
value of "near".  ;-)  Wikipedia says 80% within 150km of the border.
