I appreciate the intent behind the consideration of my understanding there. Because the text of the amendment replaces “is necessary...to secure the Canadian telecommunications system” with only “is authorized by an order” and then sets out that the order is granted by an “application by the Minister” to the Federal Court, that sets the gating factor there.
Proposed paragraphs 15.5(3)(a) and 15.5(3)(b) would give us some alternative mechanisms, but they're pretty limited. We'd essentially be relying on the telecom operator we collected the information from to consent to its disclosure.
