"The number of (technical) briefings computer science subject matter experts submit to a Canadian Parliamentary committee is normally zero" via @papervote papervotecanada2.wordpress.com/2020/05/18/set…
There are a few reasons for this. Unsurprisingly, technology people are more interested in tech than politics, and many wouldn't see the point of trying to reach across the divide. But in my experience, that street runs both ways.
For example, despite being the only technical submission to #PROC, despite our offer to appear, and despite them ultimately recommending to adopt the very technology we were offering guidance on, we were not among the dozens of witnesses they invited to hear from
By contrast, one of the witnesses they invited was essentially presenting a rebuttal to our brief. Honestly, I just don't know what to make of that.
