Thank you, Mr. Chair.
Tonight we're studying several amendments to the Industrial Design Act, Radiocommunication, Investment Canada Act, Broadcasting Act, Telecommunications Act, and Business Development Bank of Canada Act. I'm a little bit concerned about the process we're going through. Witnesses from the previous committee meeting on Tuesday had these things to say, “...full impact remains to be seen...appears...good faith...devil's in the details...lack of guidance...real risk...chilling...key stuff left to regulations...put this in the mix early on is problematic...courts will have to explain in detail...devil's in the details...uncertain how they might be implemented...destroy...insufficient...very difficult to advise...Canadian business susceptible...go to court”.
My concern is that we're going to have to go to court with these amendments. Do you think there a possibility that these amendments might eventually end up in court?
