Interesting piece. I went looking for hints of confirmation on the FINTRAC site and found nothing. Early days yet, I suppose.
I did find an amusing page on their site though - some fraudster is apparently impersonating them, so FINTRAC has to warn people about possible fraudulent emails purporting to be from FINTRAC.

It ain't easy being a regulator.

"The Register has seen a letter from the Financial Transactions and Reports Analysis Centre of Canada (FINTRAC) which was sent to several prominent Bitcoin exchanges in the country, explaining they are exempt from strict money-laundering laws."
An oddly proactive move : looks like 'the government' won't have things so easy after all (thanks to the indefinite article)
