Signal, the non-profit, encrypted-messaging app, just warned, it would rather leave Canada than comply with Bill C-22.
Here’s what Bill C-22 actually does:
✅ Forces tech companies to build surveillance backdoors into their systems
✅ Mandates that every cell phone in Canada be trackable
✅ Allows the Minister of Public Safety to issue SECRET orders to turn your Amazon Alexa into a listening device
✅ Requires metadata retention for up to one year: who you called, when, and where you were
No comparable Western nation has adopted surveillance powers this broad.
Meta called it conscripting private companies into “the government’s surveillance apparatus.”
The US wrote directly to the minister warning it compromises American citizens’ privacy.
A lawyer told committee: “As written, the minister could issue a secret order to turn your smart TV into a listening device.”
Imagine: this is the same government that froze bank accounts without a court order.
The same government that turned off committee cameras.
The same government with 638 unresolved wrongdoing complaints.
Now wants inside your phone.
Digital ID in Canada

You know who owns the majority of shares in Rogers/Shaw? BlackRock, Vanguard and Bill Gates.
MIT put together the digital currency in Canada, it's called StableCoin. You know who donates the most money to MIT? Bill Gates.
You know who helped China build their social credit score system? Bill Gates.
You know who's going to help run Canada's digital ID? Take a whild guess! Rhetorical statement btw. Every word of this is verifiable, which I encourage people to do.
Chaos and yelling as government in Canada makes themselves EXEMPT form Freedom of Information Act requests
An omnibus budget bill secretly included a statute exempting themselves from FOIA requests
Records on cabinet ministers, parliamentary assistants, and their offices inducing staff are now largely exempt from FOI requests
Holy sh*t
