Mr. Chair, my concern is that people who are developing it and have access to our systems can develop ways to access them after the time that their work is completed, particularly someone who doesn't have reliability status, secret clearance, top-secret clearance or any enhanced top-secret clearance and is dealing with the most sensitive information.
We don't know. We're hearing a lot about state actors from other countries who are interfering in our democracy here. We have people who are potentially working on our information management systems to develop an app that's specifically collecting Canadians' personal information and we don't know who they are. We don't know that they would ever receive security clearance, even if their application was in progress.
I can make an application and it could never be approved. If the only requirement to get workers is that you file the paperwork, I think the exposure for Canadians is quite serious.
Mr. Chair, how much time do I have left?
