I'm no expert in the Indian Act but I doubt anything good could come out of replacing it under the oversight of the guy whose main obsession is fast-tracking oil infrastructure

đš *SECRET MINISTERIAL ORDERS* đš
Some very smart people in đšđŠ have been sounding the alarm on this for months. Read this đ, watch the full hour plain language Q&A with qualified lawyers at the SECUđ @privacylawyer , read the @cancivlib statement and sign their petition đ
Canadaâs Bill C-22 would force telecoms and messaging apps to keep six months of metadata on every citizen, whether or not theyâre suspected of anything.
Cabinet will decide who has to comply and how, with the first regulations due up to two years after it becomes law.
Companies can be fined $250,000 a day for not obeying secret ministerial orders.
The minister insists it isnât about surveilling honest Canadians. Signal would rather leave the country than find out, and Windscribe is packing too.
The bill is now with a Senate committee, which is the last place anyone can change it.
