Newspapers do have certain codes of standards. There are voluntary bodies to try to deal with those issues. Certainly in some cases there have been people who have successfully challenged that in the province of Quebec, where, admittedly, the law is different. But in the province of Quebec there have been cases where individuals have taken successful action with respect to newspapers. I know that our office and commissioner are very interested in the fact that individuals in those kinds of situations do not necessarily have the recourse they should perhaps have to protect their privacy and dignity in situations where PIPEDA doesn't apply because there is no commercial activity.
