The Canadian government want to join the surveillance club. Fortunately, we have privacy protections in our constitution, allowing the courts to step in and keep the government in place.

Our political parties can legally collect all the data they want on anyone.

Bill C-2, a border bill, failed. It had two sections 14 and 15 that basically gave the cops permission to demand any data from any company in the country about any customer. This included lawyers and doctors.

They are trying again with Bill C-22. It’s a little better but has parts that the courts will likely deem unlawful.

On the other hand, being part of the 5 eyes allows our government to bypass local laws about data collection.

I stand corrected. I’m relieved to be honest. Wasn’t looking forward to finding another email client.

Talk about a lack of imagination. Don’t they already have a product named Thunderbolt?

Canadian here. If I can’t find a Linux distro that will not comply with this bullshit law, I’ll use my GrapheneOS phone and nothing else. Wouldn’t be the first time in my life I used a phone for everything.
