  4. The Canadian government has removed rules that would have let police get internet data without a warrant from a border security bill. This happened because many people and groups were unhappy. The government says it wants to pass the border rules first and will look at the data access rules later.

  6. Has Carney withdrawn #BillC2 yet? Cancelled the #F35 purchase? Backed out of Trump's #GoldenDome scam? Re-instated our #DST? Deployed forces to support our #NATO allies in #Greenland?

    No? Then all this talk of safeguarding #Canada's sovereignty is still just spin.

  7. Some Canadians are counting down the days till Christmas. Some are counting the nights till Hanukkah. But in the Senate, we're counting down the sitting days until we receive Bill C-4, which will, among many other things, exempt federal political parties from provincial privacy law. At QP today, I had questions. I think anyone who cares about privacy rights will want to listen. youtu.be/ZB501otrMwQ?si=jbJj62 #BillC4 #C4 #cdnpoli #SenateofCanada #LCJC #privacy #BillC2 #BillC8 #BillC12 #privacy

  9. Liberal Party Changes its Mind, Pushes for the Passage of Warrantless Wiretapping

    Fresh off of the passage of the budget, it seems that there is renewed interest of pushing a police state.

  14. Gov't officials just surprised many by apparently calling for the revival of #LawfulAccess measures from #billc2. Here's my take on it, with some corrections/clarifications of some pretty problematic statements from gov't officials.

  15. On Mark Carney's #BillC5 & #BillC2, Doug Ford's #Bill5 in Ontario, David Eby's #Bill14 & #Bill15 in BC:

    '... there is no job creation here, no reduction in cost of living, no difference to Canadians at the grocery store'.

  16. I really don't like how some guy who until very recently identified as a European has come to Canada and is trying to take away our rights, liberties and democratic governance, because apparently those things are dangerous.

  17. Today we join @internetsociety and peers around world to celebrate #GlobalEncryptionDay.

    The right to private conversation is foundational to freedom and democracy, and MUST be protected.

    Here in🇨🇦, that means we must STOP #BillC2 and FIX #BillC8!

  18. CSIS “Surprised” That Warrantless Wiretapping Would Receive Pushback

    Canadians have pushed back against warrantless wiretapping for over 20 years now. This was apparently news to CSIS.

  19. "Bill C-12 solves none of Bill C-2’s problems – it is an exact copy of the provisions attacking refugees and migrants in Bill C-2 and is simply an attempt to fast track those aspects of Bill C-2. Both Bills need to be withdrawn."

    #Canada #CDNPoli #BillC2 #BillC12

  20. At some point Canadians still on #TeamCarney are going to have to recognize that we were all fooled into electing a Harper Conservative in disguise. There's no shame in being deceived, only in continuing to refuse to accept the increasingly obvious reality.

    #Canada #CDNPoli #BillC2 #BillC12

  21. As Carney moves to accumulate sweeping new powers with #BillC2 & #BillC12 -- Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada says: "We cannot speculate as to how or when the Government may wish to use these powers"

    #Canada #CDNPoli

  22. The last time we saw anything like this was under Stephen Harper.

    "Such broad cancellations have happened before. In 2012, the government wiped out immigration applications for hundreds of thousands of skilled workers, and in 2014 it cancelled backlogs in investor and entrepreneur programs."

    #Canada #CDNPoli #BillC2 #BillC12

  23. Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada "says it's no mistake".

    Vancouver immigration lawyer Steven Meurrens suspects the Carney government "is planning to cancel applications en masse" if #BillC2 & #BillC12 pass.

    #CDNPoli

  24. "Processing times for Canadian immigration applications have reached unprecedented lengths" -- 9, 19, 35, 50 years -- leaving refugees from Ukraine & Hong Kong "questioning if #Canada is moving away from its humanitarian principles"

  25. @Tutanota Petition **e-6838** 📢 has fewer signatures, but focuses directly on the privacy aspect of Bill C-2, and petitions for withdrawal of the entire bill. (And is clearer & better written.)

    ourcommons.ca/petitions/en/Pet

    It closes for signatures on *27 January 2026*.

    Worth signing both this one & **e-6627** if you're Canadian! 🇨🇦

  26. "Bill C-12 does not fix Bill C-2; it fast tracks some of the most egregious aspects, while still moving forward with the rest"

    "Canadians reject this multi-layered concession of our rights and freedoms to American pressure, and we expect lawmakers to resoundingly vote against both bills"

  27. "The story of this legislative package is the same today as it was on day one of Bill C-2’s introduction; it’s about pleasing President Trump"

  28. So #BillC12 is not #BillC2’s replacement; it’s a fast track for part of it, while trying to delay the rest to pass when your attention is pulled elsewhere.

    Don’t be fooled: write your MP and tell them to reject the whole rotten package, TODAY! 4/4

  29. Did you catch it? As the press release and responsible Minister’s statements since make abundantly clear, #BillC2 is FAR from dead; in fact, they are more committed than ever to get warrantless access to YOUR account data! 3/4

  30. Last week, our government introduced #BillC12, new legislation before the House that drops the privacy violations of #BillC2.

    Good news! But hold on– let’s look closely at the government's own press release before celebrating. 2/4

  31. Is #BillC2 dead, and your privacy rights safe in 🇨🇦? NO. But it’s reasonable to be confused!

  35. Elbows up Canucks, say no to C-2 and sharing increased surveillance data with the Americans.

    ### Details of the Bill from the Petition:

    * Bill C-2, titled the “Strong Borders Act”, contains provisions that threaten fundamental rights and freedoms protected under Canadian and international law;

    * The Bill would grant law enforcement and national security agencies warrantless access to Canadians’ historical associations with organizations and businesses;

    * It would allow authorities to compel the disclosure of sensitive personal information, including geolocation data and contact details, based merely on suspicion of relevance to the investigation of offences under Acts of Parliament, regardless of individual involvement;

    * The Bill is designed to facilitate Canada's alignment with the United States' CLOUD Act and the United Nations Cybercrime Convention, raising serious concerns about foreign access to Canadians’ private data, including by regimes with poor human rights records; and

    * Bill C-2 undermines Canada’s obligations under international human rights instruments, particularly in relation to privacy rights and the fair treatment of migrants and refugees.

  37. Please take the time to read this thoughtful article.
    👉 "We need to make a stand and step up to protest war and out of control development causing global warming and destroying our world. We need to stand up to racism, bigotry and hate in any form. We need to stand up to the system that has allowed a small group of billionaires to control everything. We all have to think about the fact that two wars right now could end up in a nuclear conflict that would end our civilization at any moment either by accident or design. We need to think about the fact that global warming is causing severe weather, terrible forest fires, floods and storms all over the planet."
