Far be it from me to give you the perfect example that should be followed, because there will always be gaps in the perfect solutions that we think we have found. There will always be dishonest people who will try to get around these solutions. However, countries such as Estonia, India and even some European countries have put in place measures regarding unique identifiers or, at the very least, measures to ensure that government-issued cards, whether drivers' licences or health insurance cards, do not become ways of identifying people. The objective of these countries was to restore the primary role of these cards, which have become identification documents over time. Canada should draw inspiration from these countries.
