Section 41.1 makes it illegal to distribute such technologies, devices, and components within Canada. It also makes it illegal to import such technologies, devices, and components.
It's illegal to distribute, but is it also illegal to possess? As far as I know, it isn't illegal to possess the software in the U.S., only to distribute. I'm not sure about Canada, though I thought it was the same.
