Thank you very much.
Thank you, Minister, for being here today and for sharing the information that you did. I might repeat myself, but I know that you have probably more to share with regard to the question I have.
We are very serious about the work done to protect our election against outside threats and interference. As you know, we have looked at the violations committed, including by the Cambridge Analytica firm and Facebook. For several months, members of this committee have been studying the situation in depth in collaboration with parliamentary committees from around the world; this is an important step. Our committee has focused on doing this in a non-partisan way, knowing that the repercussions on our electoral system are a major source of concern for Canadians.
How sure can Canadians be that combatting interference from foreign actors, be they quasi-governmental or individuals working alone, is a priority for our government?
