I would say two things briefly. Bill C-27 builds in large exemptions for what types of data can be collected, so if it is anonymized or for legitimate business purposes. I feel like that actually warrants more consideration of what that entails and of the potential impacts it has on workers.
The second part is that, really, what these exemptions do is.... They are backstopped by AIDA—the artificial intelligence and data act, which is at the end—which really causes some notable concerns because it's putting a lot of the investigative powers in a loosely defined data commissioner role. I actually feel as though part of the task, ahead of the legislative agenda, is changing it from AI to being simply a matter of an economic strategy, and also thinking about ways of mitigating its potential negative and positive social impacts.
Yes, I think some ways of addressing how this impacts labour and trying to make sure that there is targeted legislation would be a boon, because I think this is not something that is going to be addressed by an omnibus bill.
