Welcome to 2026, it's like this all the time.

Canada’s C-22 bill is a surveillance overreach that paves the way to backdoor encrypted communications of users around the world. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/05/canadas-bill-c-22-repackaged-version-last-years-surveillance-nightmare
Canada’s Bill C-22 Is a Repackaged Version of Last Year’s Surveillance Nightmare

Last year, the Canadian government pushed Bill C-2, which would erode Canadian digital rights in the name of “border security.” The bill was so bad it didn’t even make it to committee because of the backlash from the privacy community. Now, the spring’s worst sequel, Bill C-22, aka The Lawful Access Act, is trying it again.

🚨Canada is about to rush through Bill C-22 — one of the worst surveillance laws. But we've stopped Bill C-2 just last year (details: https://tuta.com/blog/canada-bill-c2-surveillance)

Let's do it again! We say #NoToBackdoors 💪

Because there's no such thing as "lawful access" for the good guys only.

We've signed an open letter against Bill C-22, please join the fight!
