The challenge is to create new standards. I think the challenge is also to look seriously at how personal information is collected, shared, and disseminated by the federal government. It's not a very transparent process, the Privacy Act is not very prescriptive about it, and there is not a lot of public reporting about what happens to Canadians' personal information. These are all things that I think should be strengthened. The government has to turn its mind to how it could be a little more open about how it uses personal information.
