This is the 20th meeting of the Standing Committee on Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics. We are undertaking our study on the continuation of the protection of privacy and reputation on online video platforms such as Pornhub. I will remind members that this meeting is televised.
Before we do that, we will proceed, as was decided by committee members, immediately to committee business, break for the votes and then return to hear witness testimony.
We'll move now to committee business.
Colleagues, I'm getting a point of order.... Mr. Angus is on my list first. I'm not sure if it's a point of order. I do have a couple of notes that I'll maybe just jump into and then we'll turn to members.
Victor Li and Sophia Marquez have both indicated to the chair that they do not wish to appear. Committee members had asked them to appear. The committee members have also indicated that they would like to subpoena these witnesses if in fact they refuse to attend. Those have been my instructions. I just want to turn it back to committee members to determine if in fact they want to proceed, if each member wants to proceed with the summoning of these witnesses. If so, I guess we should have a discussion with regard to that.
I'll turn to Mr. Angus. I believe he has indicated he'd like to speak to this.
