Michael Geist: “The question Canadians should be asking is not whether Bill C-22 goes too far, but how much further the government plans to go.”

More Surveillance Demands to Come?: Government Admits Bill C-22’s Lawful Access Provisions Could Be Expanded - Michael Geist
Debate on Bill C-22, the Lawful Access Act, continued this week with Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree and Secretary of State for Combatting Crime Ruby Sahota leading the government’s case on Wednesday. I posted earlier on the first day of debate, which was notable for what the government chose not to say, as Justice Minister Fraser devoted just a single paragraph to the bill’s expansive metadata retention provisions and offered only process answers to questions about systemic vulnerability risks. The government continues to do its best to ignore the metadata issue, but the most alarming outcome of the debate was the admission that the current bill may only be the starting point, with support for an even broader scope in follow-up regulations or legislation.
Michael GeistPolitico has a quote that best sums up the Conservative whining about floor crossing:
“…every time you bring up the issue of floor crossing, if you’re a Conservative, you’re basically reminding everyone that you’re a bunch of losers.”

Carney secured a majority in Parliament. Conservatives say voters were betrayed.
The Liberal government clinched a majority Monday after winning three special elections, bolstered by five aisle-crossers.

“If you’re going to accuse a government of subverting democracy, it helps to understand how that democracy works.”
