Government makes a hash of genetic privacy
My column this week on Loonie Politics looks at an issue that didn't get a lot of attention in the media over the course of the last parliament, but nevertheless is a growing issue as time goes on and genetic testing becomes more available. The machinations that took place are fascinating, and shows how the government seems to have dropped the ball on an issue they promised to do something about.
