I doubt the ISPs in Qu?bec would have much sympathy for this proposed law. 
It makes their life harder and provides them no benefit.  Should it pass 
(remember, it's just proposed), I expect they'd just adjust their DNS 
caches to block responses for the list of domains that the government 
mails them and claim they're in full compliance.
