Thank you.
Bill C-31 talks about voter ID, having to produce two pieces of ID, but it also would change the permanent voters lists. It would now have your name, your address, your phone number, and your date of birth. Now, in election campaigns that I've managed--four of them now--I've had 400 volunteers. And quite often you tear off a page of the voters list and say, “Go phone these 50 people and see if they'll vote for us.” I'm wondering if all of you, as privacy experts, see it as a problem to be spreading the name, address, phone number, and date of birth of every Canadian to virtually anybody who wants it, and if that's not a recipe for identity theft.
