Mr. Speaker, my question is for the industry minister.
Last week, the industry minister issued an information sheet aimed at consumers of direct-to-home satellite broadcasting services and stipulating that it might be a crime for consumers to have equipment used to pick up non-authorized American signals in Canada. The industry minister is relying on importers, suppliers and retailers of satellite broadcasting material to relay this information to consumers.
Does the minister expect that those who sold this equipment and who contributed to create the problem will be able to enforce his regulations?
