By: Kyle Wyndham-West, PhD Student (McMaster University)

September 2023 Update: Microsoft

By: Kyle Wyndham-West, PhD Student (McMaster University)

In the month of September Microsoft recorded 10 communications reports with Industry, Science and Technology, Privacy and Access to Information, Government Procurement, National Security/Security, Defence. 

Making the largest headlines over the last month was Microsoft’s executive calling for action from governmental agencies to regulate Artificial Intelligence. 

Microsoft was also making headlines as the key case for antitrust allegations against Google as the use of Bing being shut out of popular devices, like Apple products, pointed to Alphabet’s dominance within the field. The scale of the anti-trust case, which has not been seen since the Microsoft anti-trust trial of 1998, leads many journalists to argue echoing in the procedure and a similar strategy used to try and combat the tech giant.

August 2023 Update: Microsoft

By: Kyle Wyndham-West, PhD Student (McMaster University)

In August Microsoft recorded two communications with the Registry of Lobbyists on the topics of “Industry”, “Privacy and Access to Information”, “Science and Technology”, “Defence”, “Government Procurement”, and “National Security/Security”.

During the month of August there were many international discussions on the issues of Microsoft acquiring Activision Blizzard, a video game software developer, as well as their unbundling of services from the Office Suite as per regulators in the E.U., U.S. and U.K.. Specifically in the U.K. and E.U. there were concerns by regulators from the Competition and Markets Authorities.

Microsoft has also increasingly been expanding their acquisitions and services into Blockchain and Artificial Intelligence, which would explain some of the communications reports, and could be lobbying the Canadian government on regulations and potential use cases for internal operations according to their newly developed aspirations.

Notably in regards to the “National Security/Security” communications reports is that of Microsoft’s recent involvement with email breaches in the US providing a reflection on US cyber security.

May 2023 Update: Microsoft

By: Brad McNeil, PhD Candidate (McMaster University)

Microsoft logged only two communications reports in the month of May 2023. Microsoft continues to lobby on the topic “privacy and access to information”. Microsoft has now lobbied about this topic ten times between March and May 2023. As noted in the March and April 2023 monthly update on Microsoft, it is possible that Microsoft’s lobbying on this topic is related to Bill C-27, the Digital Charter Implementation Act (2022). In April, Bill C-27 passed a second reading in the House of Commons. Now the Bill is under consideration by the Standing Committee on Industry and Technology. On May 10, 2023, the Committee was briefed by the Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada.  The Privacy Commissioner made 15 key recommendations for Bill C-27. Among them were the assertion that “privacy be recognized as a fundamental right” in Canada. The Privacy Commissioner also raised recommendations that would create a culture of privacy “by requiring organizations to build privacy into the design of products and services and to conduct privacy impact assessments for high-risk initiatives” and to “limit organizations’ collection, use and disclosure of personal information to specific and explicit purposes that take into account the relevant context.”   It is possible that Microsoft is paying close attention to such recommendations and discussion about Bill C-27 as the company is introducing the AI powered personal assistant Copilot to its Microsoft office line of products.

The following table presents Google’s lobbying communication reports logged in the month of May 2023.

March and April 2023 Update: Microsoft

By: Brad McNeil, PhD Candidate (McMaster University)

This blog post presents Microsoft Canada’s lobbying activities during March and April 2023 using monthly communication reports found on the registry of lobbyist website. This post also includes all government contracts valued over $10,000 during the month of March, 2023. Data for contracts signed during the month of April is not yet available. Data on contracts are updated quarterly. March 2023, Microsoft Canada logged only two lobbying communication reports. One on the subject matter of “industry” the other on “privacy and access to information”. In April 2023, Microsoft registered 10 communication reports, seven of which were about privacy and access to information.

In the previous Tech Lobby monthly update blog post about Microsoft, it was noted that the company actively lobbies about Bill C-27, the Digital Charter Implementation Act (2022). Specifically, Microsoft lobbies about “the creation of the Consumer Privacy Protection Act, the personal Information and Data Protection Tribunal Act, and the Artificial Intelligence and Data Act”.  It is possible that that Microsoft’s March and April lobbying about “privacy and access to information” are related to the Bill C-27 which plans to introduce new data privacy legislation and artificial intelligence regulation. On April 24, 2023, Bill C-27 passed second reading in the House of Commons. Currently the Bill is in consideration of the Standing Committee on Industry and Technology. For more information More information about Bill C-27, see this recent Tech Lobby blog post.

On March 16, 2023, Microsoft introduced ‘Copilot’, an AI-powered assistant for popular Microsoft 365 applications like Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Outlook and Teams. Jared Spataro, Microsoft’s Corporate Vice President of modern work and business applications noted that Copilot works alongside Microsoft 365 app users and will boost creativity and productivity. Spartra noted that Copilot is not just for individual use, it is also intended for the corporate workplace. Copilot will create a “knowledge models” for organizations by “harnessing the massive reservoir of data and insights that lies largely inaccessible and untapped today.” Additionally, ‘Security Copilot’ pledges to protect organizations from cyberattacks by “using data from government agencies and Microsoft’s researchers, who track nation states and cybercriminal groups”.   Conscious of the recent errors of Microsoft’s chatbot AI , Spartra noted that the company understands that Copilot  “will get things wrong” initially, but assured that it will “always put you further ahead”.

It is possible that Microsoft’s lobbying communications with various government departments were about the integration of Copilot into applications that millions of Canadian uses daily. Certainly, Copilot straddles issues related to artificial intelligence and data privacy that may be in the purview of Bill C-27. Furthermore, Copilot was created through a partnership with OpenAI, which is currently  under investigation by the Office of the Federal Privacy Commissioner of Canada. That said, it is also possible the lobbying communications were about other topics.

The following tables provide a visual of Microsoft’s lobbying communications through March and April 2023.

The value of all contracts signed by Microsoft in March alone is $24,191,614.78. A list of the government contracts signed by Microsoft in April 2023 will be released at the end of quarter 2.

February 2023 Update: Microsoft

By: Brad McNeil, PhD Candidate (McMaster University)

This brief blog post traces Microsoft’s lobbying activity in February 2023. Microsoft submitted only one communication report to the Registry of Lobbyist in February 2023. This blog post follows up on Microsoft’s earlier lobbying communication reports from November and December 2022 and uses news articles to contextualize Microsoft’s current lobbying goals. This blog post also reports government contracts valued over $10,000 that Microsoft signed form January through February.

Although Microsoft lobbyists were busy through November and December 2022, Microsoft did not log any lobbying communications reports for January 2023 and only registered one meeting in February 2023. On February 13, 2023, Chris Barry, President of Microsoft Canada, met with a Policy Advisor of the Prime Minister’s Office to discuss “privacy and access to information”. Microsoft’s profile on the registry of lobbyists website notes that the corporation is “Communicating with the Government of Canada about Bill C-27 (Digital Charter Implementation Act, 2022), more specifically the creation of the Consumer Privacy Protection Act, the Personal Information and Data Protection Tribunal Act, and the Artificial Intelligence and Data Act.”   Microsoft’s February meeting may have been a continuation of talks about Bill C-27.  As noted in a previous monthly update blog post, Minister François-Philippe Champagne, Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry and sponsor of Bill C-27 states that the Bill contains four principle objectives: 1) Gives people more control of their data online, 2) Protects children’s information 3) Addresses the responsible use of artificial intelligence (AI) 4) Brings Canada’s privacy laws into the 21st century.  Currently, Bill C-27 is at second reading in the House of Commons. The Bill contains multiple acts related to digital privacy, but it also includes the Artificial Intelligence and Data Act (AIDA). Additionally, Catharine Tunney of the CBC notes that Bill C-27 would force companies to “obtain consent from customers through plain language – not a long, jargon-filled legal document – before using their personal data.” The Bill would also give Canadians the right to request deletion of their personal data  collected by corporations. Should digital corporations fail to comply with the privacy rules set put by Bill C-27, they could face “fines of up to five per cent of global revenue or $25 million — whichever is greater — for the most serious offences.” According to Innovation Minister Navdeep Bains, Bill C-27 would provide “the heaviest fines among the G7 nations’ privacy laws.” Undoubtedly, Microsoft seeks to understand how AiDA may challenge the companies plans to incorporate ChatGPT’s artificial intelligence into its Bing search engine and Edge web browser which will serve as AI banisters for Microsoft users navigating their way through the web. Although Microsoft did not file any lobbying communication reports in January 2023, the company did sign two government contracts over $10,000. On January 1, Microsoft signed a contract valued at $10,339.94 with Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada for work related to computer equipment (servers). On January 6, Microsoft signed a contract valued at $12,992.46 with the National Film Board for work related to “License/Maintenance fees for client software related to Distributed Computing Environment (DCE)”.

November and December 2022 Monthly Update: Microsoft

By: Brad McNeil, PhD Student (McMaster University)

This blog posts traces Microsoft’s lobbying activities in November and December 2022 by tracking communications reports registered by Microsoft on the Registry of Lobbyist website. This blog post presents Microsoft’s November 2022 lobbying communication reports and also presents the contracts Microsoft signed with the government valued over $10,000 for the month. Next, this blog post presents Microsoft’s December 2022 lobbying activities and communication reports and government contracts signed. Overall, this post shows that Microsoft’s lobbying activities for the combined months of November and December 2022 were about the environment and privacy concerns related to Bill C-27 (the Digital Charter Implementation Act, 2022).

Microsoft Canada Inc.: November Lobbying Summary

Microsoft Canada President Chris Barry has registered six communications from November through December. Five of these communications were on the topic of “Privacy and Access to Information” and one was about the “Environment.”

Microsoft Canada’s lobbying details on the registry of lobbyist site notes that they communicate “with the Government of Canada about Bill C-27 (Digital Charter Implementation Act, 2022), more specifically the creation of the Consumer Privacy Protection Act, the Personal Information and Data Protection Tribunal Act, and the Artificial Intelligence and Data Act.”  

Minister of Innovation, Science and Industry, François-Philippe Champagne, notes that C-27 involves four principle objectives: 1) Gives people more control of their data online, 2) Protects children’s information 3) Addresses the responsible use of artificial intelligence (AI) 4) Brings Canada’s privacy laws into the 21st century.   

In order to give Canadians more access over their data, Bill C-27 introduces data portability which would allow users to request access to their data so they may migrate from their current service provider to an alternative one. However, As Bryan Short of OpenMedia points out, data portability is only meaningful in a competitive industry where the consumer has several viable options when it comes to choosing a service provider. Bill C-27 is at second reading in the House of Commons.

Related to Microsoft’s ‘Environmental’ lobbying activity. On November 7, 2022, Microsoft announced its 15-year agreement with Potentia Renewables Inc and Greengate Power Corporation. The agreement allows Microsoft to utilize 543GWh of renewable wind energy for its operations in Paintearth County, Alberta. Speaking on this development, Chris Barry said: “Renewable energy supply contracts like this agreement with Potentia and Greengate are key to meeting our goal of contracting 100 percent of our energy consumption with renewable sources by 2025… This agreement with Paintearth is an important step in helping Microsoft deliver on our renewable energy commitments in Canada.”
