I have one more question on a totally different matter, if I may. I concede at the outset that this may not be an appropriate question within your bailiwick, although I did look at the departmental plan for the current year and it talks about your responsibility and legislative services particularly for constitutional matters.
As you may know, the Supreme Court of Canada has frequently said that privacy is a quasi-constitutional right in this country. Dr. David Flaherty, who was probably Canada's leading expert on privacy and data protection, has written about our 35-year-old Privacy Act claiming that the act is “tantamount to a cart horse struggling to keep up with technologies approaching warp speed”. The Internet hadn't even been invented let alone global positioning systems, biometrics, etc. How can the government not take this on as a priority for legislative reform explicitly given its quasi-constitutional nature?
