Thank you, Mr. Chair, and thank you to all the witnesses for their presentations. I must say that I've learned some things, and I've agreed with much of what I've heard this afternoon.
Mr. Cabana, I'm fascinated by your concerns regarding lawful access to advancing technologies. All members of Parliament are quite technologically dependent on the BlackBerry, and I understand that it's probably equally useful to those who are engaged in organized crime and other nefarious activities.
After reading your report, and following up on what you said in your oral comments, which was that communication carriers are not required to provide access technology, I'm wondering if you could help me with other jurisdictions. Given the role that I suspect these devices play in communication and in making deals in organized crime, what is the state of the law in other jurisdictions? I'm thinking of the United States. Can you help? How does this work with respect to patents and software licensing agreements? What happens outside our borders?
