I'll start with the good news. There are relatively few drones. There aren't many of them in Canada, and the Department of Transport has to issue those licences, so their operation is fairly well contained. However, the assistant commissioner, who oversaw that file, may be more up to date on the issue than I am.
Obviously, the danger stems from the fact that these devices have the capacity to easily provide information on the daily activities of all Canadians, not to mention that they are pretty inexpensive to buy and can be used by amateurs. That isn't happening just yet. But our office has to be ahead of the curve on such issues. Imagine you're in your backyard or you're out for a leisurely Sunday drive or stroll, and a drone is monitoring you. We have to think that in the future, someone other than the state may have that ability. Will the state do it? It's worrisome. When and under what conditions will it happen? We see it happening in other countries. Those are the kinds of questions we need to ask.
