I would like to go back to the commissioner’s assessments.
On February 10, 2016, Forbes magazine reported that 700,000 IRS files, files of American citizens, but of Canadian citizens too, had been hacked. The IRS has major and recurrent problems in terms of the confidentiality of information. Some came to light recently.
What mechanisms have you put in place to make sure that, once the transfer is done, the information remains confidential and that the United States will comply with what Canada and the Office of the Privacy Commissioner have established?
This whole situation is dangerous. We have to be able to protect that information once it is in American hands.
