Thank you.
Yes, I'm happy to speak to that, of course not specifically to provisions that I would do on Bill C-2, but generally, similar to my comments on Bill C-8. I always look at these types of national security bills to see what the tools are that law enforcement needs, because they need those tools, and whether they are necessary and proportionate.
That's a big lens, so we look at what the thresholds are. Are you requiring a warrant? Are you requiring reasonable suspicion or reasonable belief? What are the processes for Canadians to be informed of these things? What are the processes to challenge these things? What are the timelines to challenge these things? Who is given those types of powers?
In Bill C-2, there also are issues about requiring organizations to make information available. Is that done in a way that is going to create systemic risks or vulnerabilities to systems, and are we mitigating that?
Those are the types of things I'll be speaking to when I come here on BillC-2. I will be making recommendations in terms of some of those thresholds, particularly when they deal with sensitive personal information, and how they can be made stronger: for example, taking it from reasonable suspicion to reasonable belief. These are the types of points I'll be making.
