It’s time protest hard against this veiled authoritarianism!
Do you know of any protests that I could join?
Did they table the amended C-2?
They have split the bill off into separate ones hoping we wont notice.
Oh I see. I read a bit more carefully and it seems that Greenpeace'es reporting might be outdated on the lawful access bits of C-2. Reading from Michael Geist it seems that they've been removed from the bill:
But we have to be vigilant as Canadian governments have been trying to pass lawful access since Harper.
That's just lawful access though, nothing to do with the rest of the nastiness around immigration which is still there.
There is much confusion about such things. "Increased surveillance" is how many people understood the worst part of C-2, but it was much worse than just that. The stuff that remains (presumably; I haven't read the new bills) could also be described as increased surveillance but isn't the same thing as the completely over-the-top ill-considered lunge in the direction of "lawful access" that was in the original.
Veiled? This is as brazen as it gets.
XD you sound like the righties on facebook.
But is less likely to actually be doing anything in real life.
