Thanks very much.
My colleagues have already made my points very clearly, so I'll keep it brief.
My concern about suspending the RFP is that we are still in a public health emergency, and the Public Health Agency is using this data right now to show whether the public health measures are working. This is data that's helping inform public health policy. This is something that could help us avert outbreaks.
My concern is while, yes, we have to make sure that Canadians' data privacy is being protected, at the same time, do we have any privacy concerns? There's no evidence that any Canadian's privacy has been compromised to date. This is information that companies are now collecting all over. This motion doesn't stop Google from collecting this information and publishing it. If you've gone on a public health website since December 2020, from what I understand, you can see this data that is being collected and given to public health agencies. I also want to make it clear that the Public Health Agency isn't collecting any data; it's taking information about where Canadians are moving.
That's why it's so important to be clear about the difference between mobility data and mobile data. “Mobile data” makes it sound like people's private information is being shared, and that's not what's happening here. We're getting information on where Canadians are moving, which is mobility data.
I just wanted to reiterate those points that my colleagues have already made very well and move on from there.
