Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Mr. McLinton, the committee received a letter from the commissioner, and in that letter the commissioner identified a few concerns. It was a fairly lengthy letter, and it goes over the current state of the laws today. One sentence stood out for me. He wrote:
Technology and business models have changed so significantly since PIPEDA was drafted that many now describe the consent model, as originally conceived in the context of individual business transactions, to be no longer up to the task: 90% of Canadians are concerned that they no longer have control of their personal information.
I'd just like to have a quick response from you on the commissioner's concerns.
