	Speech: Canadian Institutes of Health Research - November 14, 2002 - Privacy Commissioner of Canada
		This workshop is the most recent in a series of CIHR research initiatives that have informed and enlivened the public discourse on a subject that is of obvious concern and interest to me as Privacy Commissioner of Canada.
		All this liberal interpretation on my part comes with an absolutely inflexible requirement: the information used for health research must remain strictly within the confines of the research project and it must be used in a matter that cannot in any way harm the individual to whom it pertains.
		CIHR has always framed its case for access to data in terms that have recognized the importance of protecting personal health information, given its fundamental and intimate connection with the right to dignity, integrity and autonomy.
