To sum up, to be sure we're nailing everything down, Mr. Bartlett, is there anything we're not thinking about where these provisions could innocently catch someone who under colour of right is obtaining identification information? I'm not sure I have any examples, because otherwise we would have crossed it off. But it seems to me that lists of names are often sold or conveyed from one organization to another, even on a charitable basis. Maybe that's already covered by PIPEDA. I don't know. But the United Way gives their mailing list--I just picked something out of the air--to the Easter Seals people. Is there anything here? There's no evil game mentioned there, but the transfer of identification information.... Is there any way innocent parties could be caught by these provisions? I can't think of any.
