Welcome, colleagues, to our new meeting location.
We're going to start with our witnesses right now.
This is our first meeting hearing testimony for our new study of PIPEDA, the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act. I am not even reading that; I actually just know it, which tells you that I've been here far too long.
Welcome to our new committee space.
We have some very distinguished guests, many of whom have been before committees previously. We have Chantal Bernier, now from Dentons Canada, who has a wealth of knowledge and experience in this area. Thank you very much for being here.
From the Public Interest Advocacy Centre, we have Alysia Lau and John Lawford. We thank you both for being here.
We also have Éloïse Gratton and R. Gary Dickson who have been here before. It's great to see you both.
We'll start with your 10-minute presentations, in either official language, in the order I introduced you, which is just the order you happened to be listed in. You all know how this works. We'll wrap up at 5:30 sharp because other people have travel arrangements.
Madame Bernier, the floor is yours.
