Very quickly, proposed section 33 of the AI bill speaks about establishing a data commissioner, an AI commissioner. This commissioner would be granted broad powers, largely outlined in the amendments the minister put forward.
There's been a discussion at other panels as to whether the Canadian public would be served by a commissioner who reports directly to the minister or whether, given the significant societal and individual impact AI will have on every one of us, a commissioner should not report to the minister but to Parliament directly.
Do you have any comments on that?
