Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Minister, you mentioned in these digital guidelines the importance of transparency and maintaining privacy. You also suggested that these new guidelines should apply to government entities like StatsCan. Can you please tell Canadians that their data, such as banking and credit information, has not been collected by the government without their awareness or their consent?
