My last question is with respect to the powers of the Privacy Commissioner.

Ms. Stoddart, you recommended improvements to powers, but that wasn't clear to me. You set out a range of different options: statutory damages, administrative monetary penalties, and order-making powers. Do you have a strong view one way or the other about the powers the Privacy Commissioner should have in addition to the current powers under PIPEDA?
