Fair point. It's probably different in degree rather than in kind. Mr. Kapoor, you can jump in.
I don't want to use the word “relevant”, because we're debating that, but it was information that was properly within the remit of those agencies. I have no problem with agencies keeping information properly relevant to the investigations and their work.
In the case of large-scale harvesting of information, such as checking passenger manifests from every flight against no-fly lists, presumably that does not need to be kept. We don't need the travel patterns of every Canadian. Arguably somebody could make a case that three years down the road we will see Joe Smith on our radar, and we'll want to check all of his travel patterns in the past. What I'm really concerned about is that we're getting into a pre-crime society. Now we're keeping data on everything that someone does against the possibility that Mr. Bratina may do something in the future, so we can check if in the past he's crossed the line.
I'm just using you as an example. You're the first person I saw.
