He presented facts which give us pause to consider the principles of this bill.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1669719\" data-originallang=\"fr\">I, too, believe that we must defend legitimate commercial activities of businesses while protecting ourselves from spam and those who abuse a technology that has a great deal of benefits. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1669720\" data-originallang=\"fr\">I would like to know if the member has already come up with some ideas and amendments that he will attempt to present during study in committee.</p>",

Il a pr\u00e9sent\u00e9 des faits qui nous donnent une raison de r\u00e9fl\u00e9chir sur les principes de ce projet de loi. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1669719\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Moi aussi je pense qu'il est n\u00e9cessaire de d\u00e9fendre les activit\u00e9s commerciales l\u00e9gitimes des entreprises en m\u00eame temps qu'il faut essayer de se prot\u00e9ger contre les pourriels et contre ceux et celles qui abusent d'une technologie qui nous apporte beaucoup de b\u00e9n\u00e9fices. </p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"1669720\" data-originallang=\"fr\">Donc, je voudrais savoir si le d\u00e9put\u00e9 a d\u00e9j\u00e0 r\u00e9fl\u00e9chi \u00e0 des id\u00e9es et \u00e0 des amendements qu'il essaiera de pr\u00e9senter durant l'\u00e9tude en comit\u00e9. </p>"
