Thank you, Mr. Chair.

Also, thank you for all the expertise that is here today and for some very educated briefs.

I'll start with you, Mr. Fewer. Your group has stood against the FairPlay website-blocking proposal, in part by arguing that the CRTC lacked the authority to undertake such a program. Would your group be opposed to a transparent legal procedure such as using the Federal Court, where a rights holder could attain a site-blocking order if they demonstrate that copyright infringement is occurring?
