Industry committee  Yes, absolutely. That's true. It doesn't in any way pre-empt it. It's just saying that once we get past that, then we can discuss this other point.

Industry committee  I'm giving notice of motion, and then the next time we can discuss it.

Industry committee  Okay. You've already heard it, so I'll read it quickly. I will be putting on notice the motion that the Standing Committee on Industry, Science and Technology invite the chief statistician of Statistics Canada to appear before the committee to discuss the financial data pilot pro

Industry committee  Sure, if it makes it easier. What do you want to call it, then?

Industry committee  At the next non-interrupting opportunity, I'll put it that way. I don't know. I don't think it will take very long. Michael, let's try this. Do we have unanimous consent right now to invite him for one hour at the earliest opportunity?

Industry committee  It would be for one hour, televised.

Industry committee  My motion is now moved, so thank you.

Industry committee  Thank you. To Mr. Albas' question, would households in any way be informed that their data could be collected?

Industry committee  So it's not done in some magical background way. I appreciate that. Would it be accurate to say that the 500,000 households collected for 350,000 samples used is to ensure that the data is properly blinded?

Industry committee  Or it's just me. That also happens. Would it be accurate to say that the 500,000 households collected for only 350,000 used is to ensure that the data is properly blinded?

Industry committee  Is that a standard methodology?

Industry committee  I understand. To Mr. Lloyd's question, what's the legal basis of your ability to compel data without consent?

Industry committee  How long has that been on the books?

Industry committee  Do statistical agencies in European countries have the power to compel data, in spite of the GDPR?

Industry committee  Mr. Lloyd asked this earlier. If someone sent you a letter saying they didn't want their data being used, would you even be able to identify the data as theirs to take it out?
