The way it reads now, basically anybody who uses email for work would be an electronic service provider if they facilitate communications in Canada. That would include corporations, trusts, partnerships, joint ventures, unincorporated associations, etc. I am very concerned that we would have ministerial orders without judicial oversight targeted at private corporations\u2014</p>",
"fr": "<p data-HoCid=\"9265183\" data-originallang=\"en\"> Monsieur le Pr\u00e9sident, je crains vraiment que nous n'ayons gu\u00e8re l'occasion de rem\u00e9dier \u00e0 cette situation par voie r\u00e9glementaire.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"9265184\" data-originallang=\"en\">Je tiens \u00e0 signaler \u00e0 mon coll\u00e8gue que ce qui m'inqui\u00e8te le plus, ce qui constitue l'extension la plus importante des droits et ce qui m'effraie dans la deuxi\u00e8me partie du projet de loi, c'est la d\u00e9finition exacte de \u00ab fournisseur de services \u00e9lectroniques \u00bb. Selon le libell\u00e9 actuel du projet de loi, pratiquement quiconque se sert d'un courrier \u00e9lectronique dans le cadre de son travail serait consid\u00e9r\u00e9e comme un fournisseur de services \u00e9lectroniques s'il assure des communications au Canada. Cela inclurait les soci\u00e9t\u00e9s, les fiducies, les partenariats, les coentreprises, les associations non constitu\u00e9es en soci\u00e9t\u00e9, et ainsi de suite. Je crains fort que nous nous retrouvions avec des arr\u00eat\u00e9s minist\u00e9riels, sans m\u00e9canisme de contr\u00f4le judiciaire, visant des soci\u00e9t\u00e9s priv\u00e9es...</p>"
