Thank you, everybody, for coming today to meeting number 100 of the Standing Committee on Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics. Ppursuant to Standing Order 108(3)(h)(vii), we are studying the breach of personal information involving Cambridge Analytica and Facebook.
With us today are Kevin Chan, global director and head of public policy, Facebook Canada, and, via teleconference from California, Robert Sherman, deputy chief privacy officer.
I would like to start with Mr. Chan. We, and I as chair, were disappointed that Mr. Zuckerberg declined our request. We don't take that lightly, but we appreciate your being here today.
Mr. Chan.
