I don't think we will see an international treaty any time soon, either.
If different countries adopt similar or interoperable laws, the multiplication of those legislative and regulatory measures could lead to results. What's encouraging, as you know, is that Europe has already passed regulation that provides some solid privacy protection. It came into effect about a year ago.
I'm encouraged by the fact that serious discussions are now being held by the American Congress to adopt privacy protection legislation. When our trading partners in Europe, the South and several Asian countries go in the same direction, there is reason for greater optimism but it's taking a long time.
Ultimately, the adoption of stricter laws in various countries, some of which are Canada's trading partners, should improve things.
