wrote my MP about it, they sent an automated email, justifying it further, so i sent another, and then someone wrote another thing justifying further.

they dont give a shit, all members are going to vote on it regardless of whether or not the people they represent want it.

I've sent six emails to my MP since the electio. Zero responses. My MP is even indigenous, sits in the governing party and has all the historical and current reasons to fight. I guess the bank deposits are too good to give a shit about much more.

im imagining its that plus some kind of concession made to the US, "we will lighten tarrifs if you give us your civilian data and search history" "why?" "...........marketing......."

I have written and called with no response, but my MP is conservative so I imagine they have even less fucks to give on this extremely right-wing bill. I feel so fucking hopeless on all of this. I also just saw Bill C-5 was passed which is another huge dump on indigenous rights.

They're definately coming for us Poor's and disabled. That's the dramatic first sign. We best get organized now. Rollback of rights is next and already tabled.

I would ask what their safeguards are to this data being illegally obtained, and what is in place to insure that the data is safely stored and transmitted.

them taking this data without a warrant is illegal, this whole thing goes against the constitution, specifically our right to privacy. then theres the fact that they would be sharing it with the united states government. also illegal.
