First go find 3 separate articles about bill C 22 and read them. Actually read them. Now you have the jist of why people are concerned. Second. Look at the response from this MP. Protecting people from cyber crime is necessary but the invasions of privacy, weakening of encryption, and collection of digital footprints that will cause massive data breaches in future? That will just cause more crime due to the breaches that will follow.
MP response:
Our government has been clear that lawful access measures are to ensure that law enforcement and CSIS have the tools they need to protect Canadians. This includes strengthening their ability to investigate and disrupt organized crime networks and respond to serious threats to public safety.
Currently, Canada is the only country among the Five Eyes and G7 that does not have modern lawful access legislation, making us reliant on international partners like the United-States for critical information. The Canadian government believes it is time for Canadian law enforcement to have an updated, made-in-Canada solution to effectively counter criminal and national security threats.
With Bill C-22, law enforcement will have the tools they have consistently called for to combat serious crimes such as child sexual exploitation, extortion, human trafficking, and money laundering. When law enforcement and public safety officials told us what they needed to better protect Canadians, we listened. This legislation works to remove existing barriers that can delay or hinder investigations and helps keep our communities safe.
We are moving forward with legislative changes in Bill C-22 to ensure that law enforcement and intelligence professionals have the tools they need to address serious crimes, while continuing to uphold Canadian values. We are confident that Bill C-22 addresses those gaps in previous legislations in a thoughtful and balanced way.
Our government remains committed to working with all parties like CSIS and the RCMP, as well as a broad range of stakeholders, to ensure we are responding effectively to the calls from police and public safety experts on lawful access. A strong government listens and delivers for Canadians—and that is exactly what we are doing to keep Canadians safe.
Thank you again for contacting our office. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any additional questions or concerns.
Sincerely,
The Office of MP Giovanna Mingarelli
“But I was told by Twitter that Trump will never get in!” - someone circa late 2016, probably, i made it up lol. Anyways yeah you can’t just take the word of a random commentor when your rights may be on the line.
Email your MPs. Speak out. Not later not im busy. Web search your mp and send the email. It takes 5 minutes to say no to this bullshit bill.
I already did days ago, and donated some money.
Why, I don’t even know what this is. Facebook is just talking about the protests today in UK and Windsor
Just saw another comment saying it’ll never pass. So we’re good. Don’t need to do anything
