I can perhaps give you some personal experience. When I was Minister of Communications 20 years ago, I attempted an initiative on copyright. Successive governments have tried to modernize the copyright regime for Canada without actually being able to bring it to fruition. It is important that we act now and modernize the regime.
I should stress, though, that the government said, when it reintroduced the bill in the same form it was in during the previous Parliament, that it will consider making amendments at committee. There are serious technical amendments that we have to propose to improve the bill and to make sure that, in fact, the clauses in the bill deliver on the expressed intent of the government.
So, yes, it should be an expeditious process. There's a great deal of material on the public record as a result of the work that was done in the previous Parliament, but amendments need to be made to the bill as well.
