Thank you. I couldn't agree with you more.
Mr. Danson, Public Safety Canada and Correctional Service Canada claim that the Privacy Act places significant limits on their capacity to share offender information. The former minister of public safety repeated that excuse in the media.
However, the Privacy Commissioner has directly rebuked that claim, noting that the commissioner of corrections can share information in exceptional circumstances.
Can you discuss your opinion with respect to how the personal information of dangerous offenders that is normally protected under the Privacy Act should be handled to prioritize victims' rights over offenders' rights in these exceptional circumstances?
