Perfect.

With respect to remedies and recourse, you touched on them a little bit. There were some questions on this a bit previously. What model would we be looking at? There's PIPEDA, for example, under sections 14 to 16, and there's an application to court and you can seek damages. The last I checked, an illegal strip search was worth $5,000. We're not talking a great deal of money perhaps, but is that the model we'd be looking at, or are there other models we should be looking at as far as judicial recourse and enforcement of remedies go?
