lawful access idea. On March 9, Privacy Commissioner Jennifer Stoddart
sent a letter to Public Safety Canada in which she and other
provincial privacy officials said the bill would "give authorities
access to a wide scope of personal information without a warrant; for
example, unlisted numbers, e-mail account data and IP addresses. The
Government itself took the view that this information was sensitive
enough to make trafficking in such 'identity information' a Criminal
Code offence. Many Canadians consider this information sensitive and
worthy of protection, which does not fit with the proposed
self-authorized access model." "
