I came across this Bill C-2 just browsing YouTube. I thought it was for another country but this is for Canada. It enables warrantless search and it’s up to the business/organization to fight the request of information on our behalf. I don’t think Amazon/Bell/Google will put out a fight before they hand over our informations.

    I’ve been yelling about this bill for weeks. It’s an extremely disturbing government overreach, but this seems to be the way the new liberal government is moving in general.

      This isn’t a Liberal vs Conservative thing. Both parties want the same thing. That’s why they both support these types of bills. Neither party represents us or has our best interest in mind. They want power and control over us.

      This is one of those very peculiar, but definitely not connected, and definitely isn’t part of a global order, types of laws/regulations that are being passed world wide - even the swiss.

      So, nothing to see here. Nothing to fret about. It’s just gonna be used to save the children and, pinky swear, nothing else.

      Now, back in line, citizen.

        Bill c5 and bill c2 seem to be a lot more overreaching than what the liberal government was putting out before, plus they at least had the NDP to safeguard a bit. I certainly feel like they’re moving in a bolder (worse) direction.
