We believe that secure communication and document transmission through the Internet will be an essential component of the practice of law in the future and as such, it is in the best interests of the law societies to regulate the participation of lawyers in this activity. We believe it is important and urgent that the law societies proceed as soon as possible to secure and ensure their participation in the implementation of this technology. The logical first step in this process is the establishment of a national infrastructure and certification authority for lawyers so as to provide uniform standards and policies across Canada. This will be a big step forward in facilitating the participation of lawyers in e-commerce and Internet based communication, document exchange and transactions. The members of the Practice Advisor's Office, Barry Vogel and Paul McLaughlin will travel anywhere in Alberta for personal meetings with members where appropriate.
