Thank you. Depending on the length of the answers, I may have Mr. Jeneroux jump in too.
Of the past witnesses that we've heard from, the subject of Maher Arar came up several times as an example of the dangers of poor information sharing practices between governments, and rightly so. In addition, we have had decades of investigation and inquiry into the Air India bombing, and in other countries, other investigations into catastrophic acts of terrorism. These have pointed to inadequate sharing practices between enforcement and intelligence organizations and the failure of prevention through inadequate sharing practices.
I'd like any of our witnesses to comment on the balance that the current system strikes between protecting privacy and protecting Canadians through appropriate information sharing.
