That's wonderful.
Pursuant to the order of reference of Monday, April 24, 2023, the committee is resuming consideration of Bill C-27, an act to enact the Consumer Privacy Protection Act, the Personal Information and Data Protection Tribunal Act and the Artificial Intelligence and Data Act and to make consequential and related amendments to other acts.
I would now like to welcome the witnesses. We have Vass Bednar, executive director of the master of public policy in digital society program at McMaster University, who is joining us by videoconference. Also, from the University of Toronto, we have Andrew Clement, professor emeritus, Faculty of Information, who is also joining us by videoconference, as well as Nicolas Papernot, assistant professor and CIFAR AI chair.
Thank you to all three of you for being here.
I want to apologize for our being late to the committee. We had about 10 votes in the House of Commons. Because of the delay, we have until about 7 p.m. for the testimonies and the questions.
Without further ado, we will start with you, Madam Bednar, for five minutes.
