Thank you for your question.
As I recall, the comments that I, or Ms. Stoddart, made at the time in relation to the previous incarnation of the bill had to do with its substance and legislative provisions, as opposed to the consultation process beforehand or lack thereof. My predecessor, Ms. Stoddart, and myself were steadfast in that regard. Our position was that the bills, now statutes, were problematic from a privacy standpoint.
