Thank you, Mr. Chair.
There are, I guess, two different ways we can go at this. What we're proposing is to create a system outside of the courts that would provide an opportunity for someone to appeal to an actual process that would give them the opportunity to be heard by a judge with legal experience in intellectual property to be able to make a decision about the injunction. We've put it for 48 hours because we know time is of the essence for both sides in some type of a dispute.
We think this would be beneficial to making sure that it would be seen as independent, so that VANOC isn't seen as the judge, jury, and sentencer of an issue, whereas it's now going to have an independent judge, someone who has some experience and will be able to get that person or persons before the actual Olympics and have a prescribed process for injurious effect and also how to appeal for an injunction beforehand.
It's as simple as that. The other way is to send it back to the courts. We've heard evidence today, and it's not a perfect system—I recognize that—but once again, I'm concerned about just throwing everything back in the courts and we have no guarantee that the proper process or facilities and timing will be made available for individuals. That burden will probably be greater than an independent process that could lighten that burden, especially for certain groups and organizations.
