The more and more we listen to witnesses talk about identity theft, the more I, as an individual, and anybody in my constituency, I would say, should come to realize how important it is that they keep their own information very confidential and work to prevent this identity theft, which can be on a rampage all the more with all this new technology, I suppose.
This question is for the Canadian Human Rights Commission. In January 2010, Bill S-4, An Act to amend the Criminal Code (identity theft and related misconduct), passed and added new Criminal Code offences that target the aspects of identity theft.
What impact did the introduction of these new offences have on affected organizations and government institutions in charge of law enforcement? Did that have any effect on them?
