Advocate

And I consider myself a privacy and civil liberties advocate, and have studied these organizations in my book The Privacy Advocates.

I regularly give testimony to parliamentary committees, including the House of Commons Access to Information, Privacy and Ethics (ETHI) Committee.

I am on the advisory boards of the following organizations:

The Information and Privacy Commissioner of BC

I am also on the National Council of the Canadian Civil Liberties Association (CCLA) 

I regularly give testimony to parliamentary committees:

I have also appeared as an expert witness.
