We are lacking enforcement mechanisms. Our current mechanism is related to licences, involving suspending licences, removing licences or imposing new conditions on licences.
Licences are valuable because there has been a closed system. As the closed system is changing, new players are coming in and the Internet is delivering new forms of services that Canadians are clearly enjoying, enforcing our mechanisms and our regulations through licensing is no longer practical. We need new tools, such as administrative monetary penalties, to be able to help with the enforcement of our rules.
