Alright - I think my posting on Twitter days are done. I may lurk for a while, to make sure I can migrate my info sources to other services. I'll miss it. Find me on LinkedIn or https://t.co/juaHRkLPu3. I've got some 🔵 invites; if you need one, DM or email me. I'm easy to find.

[Vance Lockton @vancelockton]

@fanCRTCProfling Nice meeting you too! I don't remember what I owe the beers for, but I trust ya'.

And yes -- not going to delete; will hold out hope for better times down the road.

@fanCRTCProfling @montezumachavez I just finished a lesson with a French tutor, so you know, a hundred or more of those and I may be able to translate effectively.

Some @PrivacyPrivee folks are starting a D&D campaign, and I have to fight the temptation to develop a character whose sole purpose is to collect personal information about everyone else.

@mgeist Landwer's shakshuka is excellent! When I was with the Ontario office, Landwer was across the street -- so I gradually shifted all our team lunches there. :)

[Information and Privacy Commissioner of Ontario @IPCinfoprivacy]

Dive into our draft digital privacy charter, a vital step in creating a secure digital space for Ontario students. While voluntary, adopting the charter signifies a promise to protect students' privacy, uphold transparency, and build trust in our schools. https://t.co/d7NZ1isCix

Therrien + @privacylawyer + Gratton + Kardash + El Emam -- quite the INDU/C-27 lineup! https://t.co/l9vuTaARGs

[Vance Lockton @vancelockton]

@montezumachavez Out of committee? No. There's a long study ahead of us.

[Vance Lockton @vancelockton]

@fanCRTCProfling Neat! Don't think I'd heard of ajvar before this.

[Vance Lockton @vancelockton]

@privacylawyer @fanCRTCProfling @Pagmenzies @montezumachavez Done! As future owner I think I have the right to grant that.

[Vance Lockton @vancelockton]

@montezumachavez @fanCRTCProfling @privacylawyer You'll have to wait till Thursday to hear what he's thinking about C-27!
