I don't think this bill covers that in itself. I think we need changes under privacy reform with Bill C-27 to also guarantee that.
I do want to flag something in terms of the question of what a repair is. I think focusing on original functionality might be worth looking at, rather than the exact state that the manufacturer handed it off in. Looking at the use case where a manufacturer goes out of business or stops supporting a device, you might need to “modify” the device just to provide security protection or get it up to the standard that the device is intended to operate in.
We should be looking at the consumer's relationship to the device and making sure that looks more or less the same—not necessarily the manufacturer's code.
