Canada’s Bill C-22 is riddled with privacy problems that affect millions of people. Instead of jamming it though on an arbitrary deadline, it should be debated fully. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2026/06/canada-forging-ahead-its-dangerous-surveillance-bill

Canada Is Forging Ahead with Its Dangerous Surveillance Bill
With no serious debate, including on proposed amendments, Canada is blazing full speed ahead with Bill C-22, which would threaten encryption and increase surveillance. Also known as the Lawful Access Bill, Bill C-22 is currently moving forward quickly to a vote despite the many, many criticisms civil liberty groups and the tech industry have hurled at it.

Honest question: what are the chances this bill passes without discussion or without a debate period?, because the way things have been going it looks like Canadian politicians are like "gee-oh-pee light", so they will do whatever the fuck they like and not care.
@oscarfalcon We're not sure, but we'll keep pushing when they're back in September. More info: https://mastodon.social/@OpenMediaOrg/116778593508446320

#BillC22 update: the bill has passed House with minimal fixes. The House and Senate have both gone on break for the summer. 🇨🇦 Senate will pick #BillC22 up for hopefully lengthy study on September 28. That means 3 months to mobilize and force REAL fixes. Follow us for next steps soon! #canpoli
