plans to “strongly” recommend
At the time he said the government was working with a “number of different partners” on potential apps, and that in the coming weeks Ottawa intends to “recommend strongly to Canadians a particular app that will help us manage the spread of COVID-19.”However, Hajdu told reporters on Monday that “some jurisdictions prefer” the contact tracing already being done “the old-fashioned way.”
“As the minister of health of course, having a digital contact tracing app would likely be helpful,” she said. “One of the things that I think from a health perspective we're keeping our eye on is the usefulness of an app if there is not a high take-up.” Hajdu noted that some regions have already begun using their own digital tracking methods and indicated there may be a desire to see the use of these tools continue, which could result in a patchwork of applications being used across the country that would have limited efficacy when it comes to cross-border spread.
“The current crisis I would say clearly shows that there will be a need to accelerate the technological revolution that was already at play before COVID, and this acceleration requires an even stronger legal framework,” he said.issued a joint statement calling for governmentsHajdu didn’t say definitively when asked on Monday whether the federal government would commit to consulting with Therrien, but said that privacy will be a priority.
WE DO NOT CONCENT. Models flawed. Leaders hypocritical.

For sure !!! I would not use it. No to JustinTrudeau Communist aspirations
Sorry , absolutely no faith in this lying, fraud of a federal government. I question their loyalty to the ppl of Canada 🇨🇦
I will not do anything this incompetent minister or Tam ask. Nothing!!!! Put competent ppl in their places & I'll consider it.
This shit could of being stop if the Liberals stop people from coming into the country.
Was that you following hussen around the 7/11 ?
Imagine that .... people resistant to being tracked by the liberal_party government ...
Total incompetence on every single portfolio. Liberals.
PEKING PATTY
They must be trying to figure out how they could monetize multiple apps.
What a waste of time.
Politburo Patty needs to get back in her kayak and be quiet.
After 4 months of Justin's socialism, get prepared to welcome full blown communism.
Not in a million years. NO
No fucking way!
I get the privacy angle totally, but these people raising concerns, are the very people knowingly allow the website's they visit and apps they install on their devices to track them, send targeted ads sell there Internet habits for $$. Just sayin......
The LeaderlessLiberals do not have Canadians best interests in mind.
Gee I wonder why. Might it have something to do with the gross invasion of privacy that would be?
Interesting isn’t it..Did they think we docile Canadians were going to allow them to put trackers on us...this is a Russian and Chinese move. Do they think we are that complicit?
🤣🤣🤣🤣 for ignates they do not need an app to trace your phone
Never, if they make it mandatory I will likely get rid of my phone.
Has the minister of health got anything right on Covid “Low risk to Canada/don’t need masks/no need to close border”. How she still has a job shows the massive difference in accountability between private and government. It’s like she has no medical training at all..........lol
Contact Tracing apps are a state intrusion into our privacy.
Shove it
They should face resistance. Harsh resistence.
Dear PattyHajdu ....so do protestors get yelled at for not social distancing? Oh wait I just remembered, nothing you liberals say matter, after all here’s your boss that you support....
I'll put it on one of my broken phones that never leaves my house. But it'll nvr go on the one I always use. Not happening
Covid is done folks. Get with the program.
Perhaps this government has finally determined that there are more Canadians who wish to protect their privacy than be subjected to autocratic control.
This is straight up NWO tyranny - unbelievable and disgusting = this is worse than ORWELL
Well, it’s now okay to protest in huge groups across the country, so why would we allow them to track us?
Gfy, it’s just the flu
gov and media = wolf in sheep's clothes - conspiring with hidden agenda to destroy Canada TREASON TIC TOC DeepState Treasonist Traitors USMCA TrustThePlan DrainTheSwamp realDonaldTrump CrimesAgainstHumanity CrimesAgainstChildren WWG1WGAWORLDWIDE QAnon
How about an app that tracks every MP & the PM to see where all gov't funds are going.
I'm not installing any government app on my phone.
The Council of the Federation of the useless. It’s a good thing Trudeau didn’t need these twits to get things under control. Gaps only occurred in aspects under Provincial jurisdiction.
The last of our freedoms will be gone when this is forced on us. They call it voluntary but you're being voluntold. All it'll take is a single hack (which we've already seen the likes of Equifax) & your WHOLE ENTIRE life habits'll be sold on the dark web. Welcome to digital hell.
Boycott FakeNewsMedia CORRUPTION
You helped...
I do not consent to this FRAUD.
Best solution to the covid. NEW GOVERNMENT!
Why does this failure still have a job? Not enough people died or its ok because they were mainly seniors?
Full control. Once they force this upon us, everything you do and everywhere you go will be traced, sold to marketers, hacked, and your face will become nothing more than a bar graph on someone's statistical analysis sheet 'X person likes to go here. Y person likes to do this.'
There's still a virus?
She couldn't organize a one man parade, let alone something like this...
Omg shut upppppppppp no one caressss
