I was thinking about the privacy laws, and I just had a question on.... Is there a possibility that certain privacy laws might actually work counter to the overall privacy interests of Canadians in this case? By way of an example, I'm thinking about whether or not there may be walls set up between government departments and things like that in order to protect privacy. It may be possible that sometimes those walls would block information that might point to social insurance number abuse, in a sense, if organizations were able to share that information.
