		Revenue Minister Elinor Caplan's letter to me today announcing major policy changes regarding the Canada Customs and Revenue Agency's new six-year passenger information database is an important moment in the history of privacy protection in Canada.
		But the changes announced by Minister Caplan strike a fair and reasonable balance between the responsibilities of CCRA, particularly with regard to maintaining border security against terrorism, and the privacy rights of Canadians.
		Minister Caplan has demonstrated that she is sensitive to the importance of privacy rights in Canadian society, and for this I am deeply appreciative.
