For example, changes were made to the Criminal Code to create the new offence relating to the use of the Internet to lure children.</p>\n<p>We also launched, in cooperation with the Manitoba government, a new Internet site called Cybertip, which is working very well. Following the Sharpe ruling, we said we would review the defence based on artistic merit, and this will be done soon.</p>\n<p>I am taking this opportunity to thank the members of the Liberal caucus for their interest and excellent work in this area.</p>",
