That's quite a good question, Madam Gallant. I do appreciate that. I will start an answer, but I'm sure my colleague, Senator Carignan, will be more accurate than I am.
The bill is designed to protect the whistle-blower but to let the journalists do their job, but if the policeman is going to make an inquiry regarding a journalist, then, first, it must be the last step of the inquiry, and second, he has to convince a judge, a superior court judge, not a juge de paix, as we have now in Quebec. As I said in my presentation, in the whole administration—if we pass the bill—in 98% of the inquiries made by the SPVM, which is the municipal police in Montreal, they get it from a juge de la paix.
This is why we made it tougher for a policeman to make inquiries about a journalist, to be sure, first of all, that this is the last step of his job, and second, that it has been approved by a superior court.
This is my personal and first-draft answer, but I'm sure Senator Carignan will be more precise.
