In fact, that's the exact objective of the bill from CSIS's perspective. As has been mentioned here many times today, we're the only Five Eyes country and one of the only like-minded countries—if we want to use that term—if we compare ourselves to the Europeans, that is absent a lawful access regime. For us, this would be a significant bound to put us in a position of equal footing with partners in terms of what we are able to get under judicial authorization.
Right now, to make a quick point of it, we rely on ad hoc arrangements with a range of different electronic service providers that give us an unpredictable and widely varying set of outcomes depending on which region of the country and which provider it is we're working with on any given warrant, let's say. For us, this is a significant step that will put us on much closer to even footing with key partners.
