The way I think of government is that it has to have some influence in shaping what's happening, and I do think privacy and participation and anti-fraud crime can be the same ball of wax. I think it could be a message that this is an opportunity for Canadians to better engage with government and for learning institutions to access information, real information, directly. I think it's really a good opportunity, perhaps through your e-consultation and other means, to promote these ideas and to see it as an opportunity for revitalization and informing as well.
