Thank you, Chair.
Thank you, Minister, for being here.
I think it's very important that we protect the rights and the personal information of Canadian consumers. We realize, with regard to the digital economy and how it's evolved so dramatically over the last few years, that it's important that we address the concerns we hear from Canadians.
With respect, Chair, I hear from the NDP that we should maybe amend what has come to us from the Senate.
Minister, if we were to delay and amend, would Bill S-4 then have to go back to the Senate to get passed? My concern is that this is needed, Canadians want this, and a vast majority of Canadians want this passed, and if we amend it, what's the chance of it passing in this Parliament? It's needed.
