Industry committee Okay. Now I'll move on to Mr. Fewer for a few minutes. You talked about rolling back overprotection on digital locks, which is an interesting point. Have we ever defined exactly what the limit of a digital lock is?

David de Burgh Graham
Industry committee What is the limit of a digital lock? If I have an iPad in front of me and I have to unlock it to use it, everything on there is, technically, digitally locked. Where is the limit of what is digitally locked and what isn't?

Industry committee A couple of days ago, we had witnesses representing the blind. They indicated that, while the TPM circumvention rules permit them to circumvent for the purpose of accessibility, the fact that the TPMs are there make it a practical impossibility. Do you have any comments on that?

Industry committee Fair enough. You mentioned appropriate consequences for misuse of notice and notice. I guess we could call that “notice and notice and notice”. What would those consequences be, in your summation? What would actually work?

Industry committee I have 10 seconds or something like that. Mr. Lawford, here's a very quick question for you. If a device levy—we talked about this a lot—were to be brought in, would that not legitimize piracy? If we're charging someone a piracy charge for their device, doesn't that mean all yo

Industry committee I don't really object to the motion, which might surprise you, but I would like to propose an amendment, if I could. I don't know the right way.... If I wanted to delete two discrete clauses, what's the best way of moving that amendment?

Industry committee If I wanted to delete two discrete clauses, what's the best way of proposing that? To reread it, changing the words after that or to say what I'm....

Industry committee It's me, so it's complicated. Trust me. In that case, I'll read the motion, as I would amend it, so just follow along. I can read it again slowly, if you need me to. It's that the Standing Committee on Industry, Science and Technology invite the chief statistician of Statistics

Industry committee The objective of both the motion and the amendment is to invite the chief statistician to testify for the reasons we're all familiar with, and this seems to achieve that. Let's get him in here. We can get him in here as early as Wednesday.

Industry committee Yes, just very quickly, I'll put this motion on notice right now while I'm here. I'll do that right now so that it's taken care of. I can give it orally.

Industry committee As I've already given it, as I've already read it, do you want me to read it again?

Industry committee If we're in committee business we can move it right away. If we're only at a specific motion, I have to wait for two more days.
