The minister appeared before committee last week and said this immunity that is contained in this section is not new. It's been there since 2004. It's enshrined in the common law. It's also part of the Criminal Code.
Can you respond to that? Is this something that is new? Is this something that should be of concern to those who value their privacy? Is it a further encroachment above what was there before Bill C-13 comes into place?
