Information & Ethics committee  In the ultimate model that I'm thinking of, I don't think there's anybody who's doing that.

Information & Ethics committee  I'll go back to what I said about the EU. I think we should be interested in a Privacy Commissioner who understands privacy from the perspective of human rights. In the process of writing a paper, I was just reminded that privacy didn't make its way explicitly into the charter. P

Information & Ethics committee  I have not done work on the elderly, so I wouldn't be any more informed than anybody else who reads about all the fraudulent mechanisms by which vulnerable elderly people have money and other important things taken away from them. I couldn't comment specifically based on research

Information & Ethics committee  I would just add that I think education is important, too, but one of the ways I'd like to see education changed in this regard is not only to educate kids how to protect themselves, but to educate kids on what their rights are and on the practices that the media industry is enga

Information & Ethics committee  The other issue is that, when you talk to young people about privacy, one of the groups of people they need privacy from are their parents. This is a healthy part of growing up. They need privacy from their parents, in particular at ages when they're exploring issues around ident

Information & Ethics committee  Generally, in the area of privacy, I think of the EU as a leader and the reason for that is that they treat privacy as a human right. I think when you come at privacy as a human right, you start to see things a little differently and when you look at a market like digital communi

Information & Ethics committee  When the word “cloud” started circulating and people were getting all crazy about the cloud and worried about the cloud, someone very high up in the industry said, I just laugh when people talk about the cloud. What is the cloud? The cloud means that your data is stored on a serv

Information & Ethics committee  That's why international agreements become very important as well as trying to have countries keep pace so that nobody becomes the lowest common denominator.

Information & Ethics committee  One of the first times that young people testified in a formal hearing, either in the House or in the Senate, was in the conversation around bullying and cyber-bullying. I think that is a really interesting model of bringing forward young people to engage and to testify. I'll pu

Information & Ethics committee  It is in 2019. We're hoping to bring young people together to talk about the Internet and what they want, and privacy will be a big part of that. If any of you would be interested in being part of that, you can let me know. However, that's an informal process. We should start

Information & Ethics committee  Under the current law, no. Then I guess the question is whether you are saying that erasure of their files is something that Canadians ought to be able to demand. If you go back to the principles—and I want to use the right terms—accuracy, completeness, and being up to date, th

Information & Ethics committee  I'm a big fan of consent. I just think that in some circumstances it isn't realistic, and I'm afraid this is one of them. It's interesting to have service providers agree on a model of consent, but what that means is that they're going to have to agree on what algorithms are goin

Information & Ethics committee  I agree with that.

Information & Ethics committee  It's kind of like the current provision that talks about accuracy and completeness in the principles in PIPEDA. It's because it's kind of amorphous that it becomes difficult to use it or to know when an organization is.... In some cases, no. Maybe in health care, no. Maybe in the

Information & Ethics committee  Right. In the online context and the data that's being kept by service providers, it's supposed to be accurate and relevant to the original purpose for collection. If the original purpose for collection is to use it to create aggregates for marketing, then when does it ever not
