Bill C-22 would help law enforcement access this information more quickly. We sometimes have minutes or hours when we're looking at an investigation and trying to protect a child.
I want to speak from a Pearson airport perspective.
Sometimes we have children and youth coming through the airport who have been identified. Being able to access that information and look at that digital footprint is important because, once they go through, we may have no other opportunity to see that child again, and we may not know where they end up.
You rightly said that, within the GTA, there are many different transportation routes from the highways to the airports. This creates some challenges. Accessing that quickly is extremely important because time is of the essence in those cases.
