Currently, that information cannot be publicly released because it was obtained under a treaty. It is the prerogative of the country sending the information to authorize public release of the information.

Mr. Long, our government takes the matter of privacy protection very seriously. All the information exchanged with the United States is subject to very strict confidentiality rules. The Canada Revenue Agency makes sure that tax cooperation with its partners is fully consistent with the privacy rights in effect in Canada. Information exchange is done electronically, through a dedicated, secure and effective transmission system.
All information that the IRS receives must be kept secret in the same way as information obtained under its own tax laws. All information can only be released to individuals and authorities in the American tax administration and can only be used for tax purposes.
Protecting the confidentiality of all transmissions is a major requirement for the agency. Protecting privacy really is a priority for the agency and for our government.

The financial institutions are aware of this kind of information exchange. I must emphasize that, if the agency had not signed an agreement with FATCA, the information exchange would be done by the banks. The fact that the agency is involved and that agreements have been reached with FATCA, allows us to protect the information even more and to respect confidentiality and privacy.

I must tell you that, clearly, we would have done things differently from the previous government when the time came to get the approval of Parliament. We would not have rushed the agreement into effect by hiding it in an omnibus bill more than 400 pages long. We would have taken the time to explain clearly to Canadians and to Parliament why the agreement was being adopted. We would have taken the time to discuss it in a much more open and transparent manner in order to provide parliamentarians and Canadians with all the information, as is right and proper.

After we had obtained all the information about FATCA, we clearly would still have entered into agreements with the United States. FATCA is an American act. The position that was taken at the time really allowed the Canadian banking system, and Canadians with dual citizenship, to be protected.

The current agreement adequately protects the rights of Canadians. As I mentioned, the action needed would have been more about the process of implementing the agreement with the United States. We would have worked differently by involving all parliamentarians in open and transparent discussions and by providing information that was fair and equitable for all Canadians.

That is true, but I must repeat that the difficulty was much more related to the process. If the process had involved all parliamentarians, we would probably not be here today discussing FATCA.

The NDP is loudly clamouring for measures to fight tax evasion and tax avoidance. However, the automatic exchange of information such as we have with the United States allows us to cross-reference information.

On Monday, we made a historic announcement about an investment of $444.4 million. We certainly responded to Senator Percy Downe, who has also taken a public position saying that he was in agreement with our direction. So we are now going to work in collaboration with the senator on the tax gap.

I would like to emphasize that FATCA is an American act and more than 100 countries have to comply with it in terms of Americans with dual citizenship, wherever they are in the world. As far as constitutionality is concerned, all agreements have been and are vetted by the Department of Justice.

Under our current agreement, people who want to receive information about what has been transferred can get in touch with the agency or with their financial institution and the information will be provided to them.
