• Need clarification: Context of use is ambiguous (raised by DTO)
• Alignment/Consistency: How does it align with how the major authentication services currently do it? (e.g. CRA MyAccount, Service Canada MSCA) (raised by DTO)
• Alignment/Consistency: Does this align with the direction that TBS OCIO is heading with their Sign in Canada project? (raised by DTO)
• Alignment/Consistency: Does this impact other authentication patterns? (raised by DTO)
• Comment: Concern about the use of the power icon on the sign out button - not sure this makes sense for the action (raised by DTO)
