In this case somebody notices what the Spanish ambassador is saying on his home page and brings it to the Canadian government's attention. Since there are no urgent problems in Canada at the moment, the Canadian government welcomes the opportunity to spring into action. No one knows for certain how many Spanish Ambassador to Canada home pages there are. The Internet begin what it is, there may be many. Try looking up someone with an ordinary kind of name, like Elvis Presley, say, and see how many home pages turn up.
People have home pages who have been dead for centuries.
This probably represents a diplomatic victory for our country and must be hailed as such. Still, it's sad. For a while, the concept of the home page looked like the perfect medium for personal expression. You set up shop in the Internet, put your picture in there, a brief autobiography, some nice quotations about yourself that you make up if your friends are too busy to make them. While you have people's attention, you let them click on a number of important pronouncements you would like to make about various important issues.
