Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Mr. Weinstock and Mr. French, thank you very much for joining us today.
Mr. Weinstock, I am very interested in the last point that you raised. I listen to you quite regularly on Radio‑Canada. You spoke about this just before Christmas, I believe. The trust of the general public depends on the context.
In the current case, the Canadian government did not conduct surveillance. It used de‑identified, anonymized and aggregated data. As you just said, the public was more tolerant at the beginning of the pandemic.
Some of their de‑identified data were used by provincial, municipal or federal governments to decide on the most effective measures in response to the pandemic. In your opinion, did that undermine the people's trust in government?
