This might be a good segue. I had a great meeting with the senior legal counsel for Google, and he wrote a very thoughtful memo here on a couple of different subject matters that he thought the committee might benefit from discussing or looking at. I have that memo here. It is only in English. I would be happy to share it with the members of the committee, subject to any sort of technical requirements for its translation or what have you.
If I may, by way of introduction, the subject matters were “Privacy by Design”, so the committee might study how the private sector can develop and does develop pro-privacy products as a competitive edge in winning and keeping customers; open data, government, looking at the possibility of opening vast added resources of the Government of Canada to the public. A study of successes and challenges in other jurisdictions would provide the committee, in my view, with a solid base of knowledge to make a recommendation to the government on how best to implement a potential strategy.
Data portability was another subject—again, I'm just briefly going over some of the areas of potential study—whether data portability has a pro-privacy impact, and explore other market-driven pro-privacy solutions.
Then, of course, there is privacy in data security, which is further divided into two major subject areas. HTTPS, which of course is the hypertext transfer protocol secure, is used to encrypt data. The suggestion would be that we might explore the barriers to the greater adoption of HTTPS across a variety of websites, including the Government of Canada websites. As a second subsection of that, privacy and data security, would be anti-malware, which is actually quite an interesting area for us to perhaps look at. We would examine the integration of privacy and security, and the committee might consider how the government could further foster anti-malware collaboration through the creation of a registry or phishing or malware site.
So I have that document, Mr. Chair, and do I have to...?
Sorry, go ahead.
