Thank you so much, Chair.
In April of last year, there was a data breach from the Christian crowdfunding site GiveSendGo. That data breach revealed that there were millions of dollars that had been raised by groups banned from raising funds on other platforms. They had been banned because of episodes of hate speech and violence that had been used on the platforms. Some of the biggest beneficiaries of that had been groups like the Proud Boys, which are a designated terrorist entity.
We only learned of this because of a data breach. I'm just wondering, we as policy-makers have to anticipate the new landscape that's before us. Does FINTRAC have what it needs to capture this, maybe not from a site like GoFundMe but for other platforms that are competing for this space and those dollars?
Are there gaps that we need to plug as policy-makers so that these things can be caught before they end up being just a data breach?
