Okay.
Following consultations held after this bill was introduced, the Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry put forward a series of amendments last September. He told us that you had consulted about 300 individuals and groups.
In addition, during the consultations, people who were called to our committee meetings told us that their names were not on the list of those 300 individuals and groups. Some came to tell us that they had not been consulted or that they would have liked to be consulted, or that they would have liked to see much broader consultations. In fact, we have been told several times that the consultations on Bill C‑27 should have been much more extensive.
Now we have a series of amendments, including amendments NDP‑2 and G‑2, which again show that some people have tried to get you to change your perception of the bill or the way you're drafting the bill.
You met with some groups much more intensively than others, if I understood correctly. That is the case for representatives of the Canadian Anonymization of Data Network, CANON, whom you have apparently met with about 10 times.
Why has it been necessary to meet with representatives of this group more than 10 times since the bill's introduction and our analysis of it in committee?
