Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Thank you, witnesses.
I'd like to start my questions with Mr. Balsillie.
You're a unique—in my mind—successful entrepreneur who's in this space, the technology space. Everyone, I think, knows what you created, invented and built with BlackBerry, but you're not unusual because of that, although that was amazing; you're unusual because you actually put your capital into trying to improve public policy, with a lot of time and effort to do that. I want to thank you for that.
You've been talking about the surveillance economy and personal privacy data breaches by big tech—Facebook, for example, on numerous occasions—for quite a while. When did you start talking about this?
