My overall recommendation is to modernize PIPEDA, to modernize private sector privacy legislation. That is a mandate of this committee. That is an area where the Minister of AI has said publicly that the government will look to introduce, at some point, modernized legislation. There were attempts in the past.
My main message is that we need to modernize and we need to give my office enforcement authorities. This is a major gap in the enforcement regime. I can only issue recommendations. I cannot issue orders and I cannot issue fines. We are standing out among international partners in this respect. That is an easy fix that Parliament can do. There are other elements that need to be modernized as well, but that would give me the enhanced tools I need.
In the meantime, I have been using and will continue to use existing tools to deal with those issues. That's what I did in dealing with Pornhub and that's what I am doing in dealing with the investigation of X and deepfakes, but the fact remains that I cannot issue orders at the end of those investigations.
