Carney is traveling to Ireland and France to "deepen ties". Both France and Ireland have been seeking mandatory age verification, data retention, and encryption backdoors. Both countries may be lobbying Canada to pass Bill C-22. #c22 #privacy

[The Guy @ProGamerGov]

Bill C-22 will cut off Canadians from their loved ones overseas, when WhatsApp, Signal, iMessage, and other encrypted apps block Canada. Mandatory metadata retention and the weakening of encryption is unacceptable. #privacy #encryption #metadata #lawfulaccess #c22

[The Guy @ProGamerGov]

Bill C-22 will irreparably harm both Canada's tech sector and the AI sector that the government loves so much #c22 #encryption #privacy #lawfulaccess

Under Bryan Larkin, the RCMP has accidentally targeted innocent people with completely unregulated malware: https://t.co/anSpJf8Y4u

He's now asking for Canadians to give him the power to demand encryption backdoors and metadata retention, with bill C-22. #c22 #privacy

[Michael Geist @mgeist]

How do you know the government is uninterested in the privacy risks of Bill C-22? The Liberal MPs on the Public Safety committee just voted against multiple motions to invite the Privacy Commissioner of Canada to committee to answer questions on potential amendments.

[The Guy @ProGamerGov]

Reminder that Sgt. Aaron Gilkes from the RCMP has spoken out in favor of suspiciousness metadata retention on C-22, which is likely illegal under the Charter. He is not a neutral witness. #SECU #C22 #cdnpoli

Today's #SECU Committee Meeting on bill C-22 has started, and is likely the last meeting before it returns to the House of Commons. #c22 #lawfulaccess #privacy #encryption #cdnpoli

Hey @CACP_ACCP, remember this? "Firm opinion"? It's on the record.

[David T.S. Fraser @privacylawyer]

There is so much bullshit in this statement by Canada's police lobbyists that I hardly know where to start.

[The Guy @ProGamerGov]

@mgeist The Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada is soliciting opinions on mandatory age verification until August 4th. Tell them that mandatory age verification is unacceptable, as no form of age verification is private or anonymous: https://t.co/1463nc1oib

[The Guy @ProGamerGov]

If live in Canada and you want to continue using WhatsApp, Signal, iMessage, and other encrypted messaging apps, you should be prepared to pay for a foreign VPN. That is unless the Liberal back down on part 2 of Bill C-22, An Act respecting lawful access #C22 #cdnpoli #privacy

[The Guy @ProGamerGov]

Almost every Canadian organization is coming out against Bill C-22, and the minister was handed a golden off ramp with splitting the bill. But he had decided to double on being an authoritarian, and has setup a new #SECU meeting with supporters of the legislation #c22 #privacy

[Michael Geist @mgeist]

. @signalapp leaves no doubt about impact of Bill C-22 on the popular messaging app in statement to committee:

“Signal will not build surveillance into our service. If we are ever forced to choose between betraying the people who rely on us and leaving a market, we will leave.”

[The Guy @ProGamerGov]

The Liberals have weaponized the translation process to keep people from considering briefs during the #SECU Committee meeting on Bill C-22 #C22

[Michael Geist @mgeist]

The SECU review of Bill C-22 is such a mess. Briefs aren’t translated, amendment aren’t translated, but government still wants to rush ahead anyways. CPC MP @FrankCaputoKTN just said there are at least 70 proposed amendments to the bill.

[Shoshana Weissmann, Sloth Committee Chair 🦥 @senatorshoshana]

"Age verification lays the foundation for a fully government controlled internet."
— @mullvadnet with an amazing takedown

"If age verification is introduced, everyone will have to identify themselves either to the service/website they want to use or to a third party capable of linking them to their activity on that service/website. The correct term for age verification as it is implemented today is therefore identity verification."

[The Guy @ProGamerGov]

The Office of the Privacy Commissioner of Canada is soliciting opinions on mandatory age verification until August 4th. Tell them that mandatory age verification is unacceptable, as it is neither private or anonymous: https://t.co/1463nc1oib #cdnpoli #ageassurance #privacy

[The Guy @ProGamerGov]

Mandatory suspicionless metadata retention should be illegal regardless of length. It is illegal in the European Union, and it should be illegal in Canada. Tell all of parliament's #SECU members to reject mandatory metadata retention for Bill C-22! #c22

[The Guy @ProGamerGov]

Tell your MP, the Liberals, and members of #SECU to support the goals of petition e-7416 and oppose Bill C-22's metadata retention and encryption provisions.
