520 |a"In recent years, telecommunications and electricity companies have experienced an increase in copper theft and vandalism. These crimes cause critical infrastructure service outages and can have serious consequences for public safety. Businesses, municipalities and various organizations experience financial losses due to copper theft. In light of the evidence heard, the Standing Senate Committee on Transport and Communications (the committee) recommends amending the Criminal Code to impose harsher penalties for crimes involving critical infrastructure, such as copper theft. The committee believes that the federal government could encourage provincial and territorial governments to review their regulations. Furthermore, the committee believes that better sharing of information on metal theft among law enforcement agencies would ensure better coordination of investigations into these offences"--Executive summary.
