The reality is that we are the public. The public entrusts us to gather that information on their behalf in the execution of our duties.
I don't believe all information should be accessed, no, by the public in general. Obviously some tightening up needs to be done with respect to privacy, now that we are getting into identity thefts and other areas. What the general public has access to as opposed to what we have access to—those are two different scenarios.
We are accessing the information under lawful authority, based on the Criminal Code and the other acts that guide us and our oath of office as well. The general public is not held up to the same level of scrutiny or same level of accountability as we are on a day-to-day basis.
