The legislation is intimately connected. The three-quarters of this bill that we have in front of us relates to, in most cases, telecommunication service providers handing over information to the police and the circumstances under which the police can request it and demand it, and then this immunity that actually bestows on those telecommunication providers rights.
That's one-half of a coin, where the other half is regulated by PIPEDA, the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act. So you have two forces at play, and they are in fact intertwined. So hopefully, when Bill S-4 is being reviewed, they will, in fact.... Although, from what I understand, the minister and the justice officials were not willing to talk about that.
At every part of the PIPEDA review process, which Bill S-4 is the culmination of, Department of Justice lawyers were there acting on behalf of public safety and acting on behalf of others, particularly when it came to the provisions in subsection 7(3), and I would really hate.... Because they interlock together, if you look at this gear in isolation from that gear, you're not going to see how they actually play together, and that needs to be subject to some thorough discussion.
