Canada’s Bill C-2 Opens the Floodgates to U.S. #Surveillance
The Canadian government is preparing to give away Canadians’ digital lives—to U.S. police, to the Donald #Trump administration, and possibly to foreign #spy agencies.
Bill C-2, the so-called #StrongBordersAct, is a sprawling #surveillance bill with multiple privacy-invasive provisions. But the thrust is clear: it’s a roadmap to aligning Canadian surveillance with U.S. demands.

An interesting take on the proposed #Canadian #strongbordersact Bill #C2
A lot going on in CBC's 'At Issue' panel this week. Well worth your 20 minutes.
At Issue this week: Sources tell CBC/Radio-Canada that Carney and Trump have shared private calls and texts about tariffs. Premiers pitch their infrastructure projects to the prime minister. And does a new border security bill go too far?
'I am equally troubled by the stuff on the refugee side. I thought it was a precept of this country, and of other law-abiding democracies, that we don't deport people without a hearing. I don't care whether you've been here two weeks or a year. You have your right, as a basic human right, to have your day in court, to be heard'
'I am troubled by the notion that we have a new government that believes that it should introduce such measures under the guise of reinforcing the border.'
'This [bill] infringes on privacy rights in a way that no legislation I've seen before (...) and it is not even the point of the bill'
'It is clearly a Trojan Horse legislation, and I find that very troubling'
'Some of the measures in this bill date back to the Vic Toews era under the Stephen Harper government'
