-establishing a national database of Internet users.

2. service providers would be responsible for the costs associated with providing a lawful access capability when a significant upgrade is made to their systems or networks, however
3. they would not be required to pay for necessary changes to their existing systems or networks.

Its disgusting and it means the death of online porn in Canada.
