Mr. Speaker, the dental care plan is having a real impact on the lives of Canadians. Across our beautiful country, 4.3 million people have received dental care since the program's launch, and over 21,000 residents in Pierrefonds—Dollard are benefiting from the plan. This week at my constituency office, we are hosting our fourth open house to help residents renew and enrol in their dental [more]

I understand. Currently, Canadians have a reasonable expectation of privacy. This legislation will shift that landscape. Can you explain how it would shift that landscape? Can Canadians still expect to have a reasonable expectation of privacy, given the scope of this legislation?

I thank the witnesses for being here. I'm so happy to see you in front of us today. I have a lot of respect for the work that you have done throughout your careers. I will start with you, Mr. Noël. Over the years, I have come across your work with respect to security certificates and many other pieces of national security legislation, and I have a lot of respect for this. You stated earlier [more]

With respect to this collection, there have been many concerns raised about its unintended capturing by unwanted actors. Do you want to share any concerns about those we don't intend to have this information having it anyway, whether through the companies in question or hostile actors, be they foreign states, hackers, etc.?

Right. At some point, you have spoken about targeted quick freezes, instead of the current approach. Do you have any commentary? Do you want to expand upon that concept a bit?

I appreciate that. I will continue along this path. If you can't comment, that's fine. Right now, Canadians have a reasonable expectation of privacy when it comes to talking with a friend. It is a private conversation. The fact that it happens is a private conversation. Can you comment on how our expectation of privacy would inevitably have to adjust because of this type of collection?

I'll use the remainder of my time to plead to Meta that it please curate an environment online that is family-friendly—to be honest, not just one that is family-friendly but one that invites people to positively participate. As elected officials, we have so many comments on our social media that do not create environments that encourage positive discussion. I just want to put that out there to [more]

Okay. Does anyone else have a comment on this? If not, I'll ask my next question. We know there have been disproportionate impacts in policing with respect to racialized communities, indigenous people and different social movements. Do you have any concerns around impacts being different for specific communities within Canada in terms of this legislation?

I'd like to ask both Mr. Diab and Mr. Geist if they have anything they'd like to add they haven't yet had a chance to.

In the 30 seconds that are left, do other European and Five Eyes have the approach as what you're describing?

I know you've spoken about the duty of candour of CSIS and other agencies. I understand your current role is different from your role in the past, but, Madam Deschamps or Mr. Noël, if you have any comments about potential concerns around duty of candour or compliance by policing organizations and those that have the authorities.... Do you foresee any potential concerns?

Thank you, Mr. Chair. Thank you to the witnesses for being here today on this important legislation. I want to start with Professor Geist. You were answering a question from a fellow parliamentarian, Madame DeBellefeuille, around privacy and how other Five Eyes and European countries handle that issue. C-22 I'm also curious about judicial oversight and how Five Eyes and European countries [more]
