It's precisely the problem, as I would see it. If it can be used only for the purpose of this act, it limits the CRTC's ability to share information with the Competition Bureau, because there it would be used for the purposes of another act. Similarly for the Privacy Commissioner, it would be used for the purposes of PIPEDA, and even more so in the case of the laws of foreign states, where evidently something like the “can spam” act in the United States is not this act; therefore, we would have to maintain it confidential and not allow it to be sent to someplace where it would be used for the purposes of another act.
