You make a compelling case—for me anyway. All of you do, and certainly the panel before did. Some 15 pages of people, organizations, and groups have indicated their concern with this decision, and Mike listed some of the major or big organizations across the country that have written in to say this is not the way to go.
The question in my mind is, why are we doing this? There was a suggestion by an earlier group, the National Council of Women of Canada, in conversation with we me afterwards, that maybe what we're doing here is trying to clear the deck so that corporate interests can come in and mine that information, and then sell it back to municipalities and organizations.
Do you have any thoughts on that, if that's where we're going? First of all, have you heard or sensed that was where we were heading? And if that happened, what impact would it have?
