Thank you, Chair.
Mr. Green, you'll forgive me for harping on this. I'm just trying to walk through my understanding of it. When we left off, we were clarifying my question.
You talked about the local inability to identify a threat that's not necessarily going to recognize borders. I guess the concern can be flipped as well in terms of that type of information being accessible, say, to national security agencies or law enforcement. The specific example I'm thinking of is the concern that's been raised by the Privacy Commissioner here in Canada. For example, Canadians might now legally purchase marijuana with their credit cards. As it is illegal federally in the United States, if the border patrol were so inclined, that information could potentially see a Canadian being barred from entering the U.S.
If that information is there somewhere, for good or for ill, there's always going to be a risk of it being used. I'm just not clear on the accountability that exists, both in law and otherwise, for information for me as a Canadian dealing with a Canadian bank that might be stored on a server located in the U.S., or anywhere else.
