Crazy @MarkJCarney would think anyone other than his cabinet would “like that” giving China spy machines access to the North American market. He really is out of touch in the threat Communist China represents. And he is frankly stupid to think it will end at 49000. In January China will threaten or actually put 100 percent tariffs on canola and certain seafood unless we raise the ceiling. Carney is a China weakling.
🚨BREAKING NEWS: the Orwellian Surveillance state is officially coming to Canada.
The Carney government just filed a motion to ram Bill C-22, the mass Canadian spy bill, through Parliament by the end of this week.
Here’s their play:
✅ Amendments kept SECRET from the public before the vote
✅ Zero discussion on any remaining amendments
✅ Weeks of expert testimony from the Privacy Commissioner, lawyers, security companies, discarded
✅ Only 30 minutes of committee debate
They want all the big tech companies to be forced into metadata retention, encryption backdoors, warrantless data sharing.
Not to mention that they introduced Bill C-36, which strips the Privacy Commissioner’s role in private sector privacy regulation.
The privacy regulator gutted on Monday.
The surveillance bill rammed through on Tuesday.
The amendments hidden from Canadians on Wednesday.
Spying on us by next week?
So this is what Carney means when he said doing things “at speeds not seen in generations?”
They buried hundreds of thousands of letters from concerned Canadians in a warehouse, then rammed through an even more authoritarian version of Bill C-9.
Now they've shut down debate, dismissed experts, and ignored tech companies—to fast-track their Orwellian spying bill—and they'll look you in the eye and tell you this is what democracy looks like.
There is no voting your way out of this mess.
Carney says Canada and Ukraine are "working closely on production of drones" and says it's CRUCIAL that Canada supports the "reconstruction" of Ukraine.
Sounds like we're facing many more years of Canadian tax dollars going to a foreign country with no oversight.
🚨In one week Carney mocked Trump publicly, declared Canada belongs with Europe, and sent a minister to Beijing for Chinese EVs.
CUSMA renewal is in two weeks.
2M jobs are on the line.
Someone should tell the PM which relationship pays Canada’s bills. 🇨🇦

Social media is (mostly) bad for kids.
But you see the government didn’t give them an iPhone, the government didn’t ignore all the safety tools that already exist on the apps and the government didn’t neglect their responsibilities…..the parents did.
All the tools to protect your kids ALREADY exist. You didn’t use them.
And now you’re clapping that the government is doing your job? Well congrats because now they’re about to parent YOU and maybe you want that.
You will be monitored, tracked and controlled like a toddler that can’t make adult decisions for themselves.
The government isn’t trying to parent your kids. They’re here to parent YOU. You will be tracked. You will have to sign up for digital ID to access the Internet, you will be watched and controlled.
Prime Minister of Canada caught on a hot mic with President Trump.
He can clearly be heard saying: “less than 3% of our product”, “49,000 cars”, then while making a cut off gesture with his hands, “capped”, and “I thought you’d actually like that”, before walking away.
Presumably this is in relation to Chinese EV’s.
For a government big on communications over action, consider the message sent to the White House in the last week while the PM was in Europe:
- He mocked the President from behind a podium To a crowd.
- He asserted Canada has more in common with Europe than the US.
- He sent his industry minister to China to campaign for Chinese EVs despite concerns on both sides of the border.
July 1st is two weeks away. How do any of these actions help positively advance our most important trading relationship? #cdnpoli
In Canada, Bill C-22 will give our government back door access into all our devices and requires carriers to store user data for up to "a year."
Sam Cooper tells us why the Carney Liberal surveillance legislation is bad for everyone—tech companies, Liberals and Canadians.
Full episode premieres everywhere tomorrow, June 17th.
This is why Carney bribed the opposition MPs to cross the floor. This is what they wanted but couldn’t get without a majority: secrecy, authoritarianism, and the right to spy on Canadians.
Thanks @CdEntremontMP@jeneroux@MarilynGladuSL you quislings.
I’ll be working on a post to unpack the key elements of Bill C-36, but the big story is the stripping of the Privacy Commissioner's powers over private-sector privacy law after 25+ years. The Digital Safety Commission (now Digital Safety and Data Protection Commission of Canada) will now be responsible for both regulating online speech and content moderation across the country's largest platforms and overseeing how every organization in Canada collects, uses, and discloses personal information. There is no precedent in Canada for this kind of digital super-regulator.
You have to read Bill C-34 on The Commission to believe it. It sets the rules on age verification, social media bans, and content removals while serving as combined regulator, investigator and advocate. At the start, Chair alone can be the full Commission.

The kids’ social media ban gets the headlines, but my post argues Bill C-34’s most consequential element may be the Commission, a super-regulator overseeing the system with its own rules of evidence, potentially secret hearings, and wide-ranging powers.

I apparently understated the power of the Commission. The new privacy bill strips the Privacy Commissioner of Canada of private-sector authority, transferring it to a newly constituted Commissioner who is a government appointed member of the Commission, now called the Digital Safety and Data Protection Commission with a new Privacy and Consumer Data Commissioner. Full digital regulator in Canada.
