Both of you, Dr. Sullivan, and Mr. Horgan spoke a lot about and we share the concern about retaining talent in Canada. During the debates around Bill C-51, a number of business leaders wrote an open letter raising alarms around Bill C-51. I want to quote a small bit from the letter:
Most importantly we ask for data security. We know that many of our clients, including our government, will only host services in Canada because of the invasive privacy issues in the U.S. The U.S. tech industry has already lost billions in revenue because of this, and we don't want it to happen here.
Is there a concern here in Canada around the sorts of invasive technology breaches we're seeing in the U.S? Is there a concern here in Canada around this and its impact on exactly what we're talking about here, retaining talent and building disruptive technologies?
