I call this meeting to order.
Welcome to meeting number six of the House of Commons Standing Committee on Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics.
We're starting late because of votes. I'm going to dispense with parts of the regular preamble. I think members are familiar with how we operate.
Pursuant to Standing Order 108(3)(h) and the motion adopted by the committee on Thursday, January 13, the committee commenced its study on the collection and use of mobility data by the Government of Canada.
Today, I would like to welcome our witnesses in this first panel. Our witnesses attend as individuals.
We have witnesses Ann Cavoukian, executive director, Global Privacy and Security by Design; and Teresa Scassa, Canada research chair in information law and policy, Faculty of Law, Common Law Section, University of Ottawa.
We will get right into the opening statements from our witnesses, which will be for five minutes each at the absolute maximum, please.
We'll begin with Dr. Cavoukian.
