Senator McPhedran: Senator McCallum, towards the end of your speech, you addressed the conundrum of leadership within colonial institutions. I’m mindful, as are many here, that you’re the chancellor of a university in Manitoba, and I wonder how you reconcile those two roles, whether it is a constant conflict, because, of course, universities are one of the locations where we’re seeing many of the cases that you have spoken to tonight.

Senator McCallum: Thank you for the question. I had to decide how I was going to be involved in this issue of identity theft and fraud, and I decided I would take it as a senator, which meant that I told the university, the board of governors and the Senate to which I belong that I would not be involved in how they were going to deal with the policy of identity theft and fraud.

They are developing it on their own. They don’t discuss it in front of me. They will deal with it and with other universities. They’re working with the University of Manitoba.

(On motion of Senator Dalphond, debate adjourned.)
