Quote:
"Matt Hatfield, executive director of OpenMedia, a non-profit that advocates for inexpensive and surveillance-free internet access, said the minister's
'recent statements show that the concerns the public have about Bill C-22's attacks on privacy are justified, not necessarily that he's committed to fixing the bill.'

'So long as this legislation allows the government to install devices in a vast number of services that can intercept both encrypted and non-encrypted data, it will pose an existential threat to Canadian privacy,' he added in an e-mail."

"Liberals Are Pushing Canada's Spy Bill Through by June 19 Despite Massive Backlash"

Quote:
"University of Ottawa law professor Michael Geist called out the minister on Thursday for claiming Canada's metadata collection rules are in line with G7 and Five Eyes allies, noting that's just not true.
The U.S. has no federal mandatory metadata retention law, and European courts have repeatedly struck down similar rules.
Geist also flagged that the government's strict five o'clock deadline for amendments effectively killed key privacy safeguards proposed by the Privacy Commissioner before they could even be considered."

This one need a few boosts please - at least tell your followers of the target date. Thanks.

Bill C-22: Minister Wants Canada's Spy Bill Law by June 19

Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree wants Bill C-22 passed before Parliament breaks for the summer, and he's not being subtle about it. "My expectation is to get it done before we rise. I want this as law before we rise," Anandasangaree told the National Post on Wednesday. The House of Commons is set to rise

While this article contains some interesting comments and video links,
I do not share the poster's opinion that Bill C22 is crumbling.
I wish the gov would turf it but I doubt they will.

It might be that the minister is playing the part of the PM's patsy.

PMMC wants that bill for some reason unknown to most people.
I suspect that he is arrogant enough to ram the bill through.

I would suggest that people start sending emails to their Senators.
Flood their in-boxes.

Indeed, the official confirmed that law enforcement wants the bill specifically because it would provide an opportunity to access encrypted communications.

RCMP Confirms Bill C-22 Concerns: Police Want Law to Provide Access to Encrypted Communications - Michael Geist

As the concerns about Bill C-22 mount, the government’s incoherent response has included Justice Minister Sean Fraser implausibly comparing metadata to phone book data and Public Safety Minister Gary Anandasangaree suggesting that Canada was just trying to match U.S. metadata retention laws (the U.S. has no such law) and claiming that tech company concerns regarding breaking encryption were based on misinformation. Yesterday, the RCMP appeared before the Public Safety and National Security committee and quickly contradicted the Minister, affirming that concerns about Bill C-22 are well justified. Indeed, the official confirmed that law enforcement wants the bill specifically because it would provide an opportunity to access encrypted communications. The exodus of tech companies, which now also includes DuckDuckGo, can be expected to continue. The relevant remarks embedded below.

@OpenMediaOrg
That is good news and I look forward to watching the video.
But keep in mind this link:

I wish more it-security and privacy advocates had the opportunity to testify as, IMO, the Libs are really working overtime to spread misinformation.

The amount of time given to opponents of Bill C22 has been pathetically minimal while proponents seem to have as much time as they like.

I hate that cowards are abondonning Cuba, because Trump is a madman and they have heir own Trump Problems.

What do I mean? I mean China and Europe putting ships off Cuba and bringing solar cells.

I DO NOT mean thoughts and prayers.

Cowards all across the world forget what WWII was about, now that Nazis are back.

National Self Determination is guaranteed.

Cowards.
