@ExtremeCen80240 @alexxstation It does absolutely apply. HTA is full of clearly stated exemptions for emergency vehicles like below, so even if they override some rule they still do so as per HTA.
Interestingly, there is no exemption allowing them to blow through the stop sign.

@privacylawyer Funny thing, they could've made it work at the land border crossings if they made it to "Enhanced driver license" like Ontario used to have. It would've had the zone with machine readable font like every passport has and wireless chip.
They could make it useful. But they didn't.

Canadian Government: Tech companies are misleading the public on security backdoors and breaking encryption in Bill C-22
RCMP: We welcome Bill C-22 because we need security backdoors and the legal tools to break encryption

@hikingtheglobe0 Jersey city takes slightly more than half of this picture, so it should be the answer.

@mgeist Do you know when the voting is scheduled for? Thinking if it's not too late yet to bother our MP.

Warning from Apple to Canada on Bill C-22 "As you know, this may be one of the last times we're permitted to discuss the consequences of this legislation publicly."

"That's because of the bill's secrecy provisions which forbid companies like Apple from even discussing the orders we receive with our users or the public." @Apple

A Google exec warned Bill C-22 "goes beyond any regime that I'm familiar with" because it gives government broad secret powers without judicial oversight.

Google says it was not consulted before the bill was tabled.

[Windscribe @windscribecom]

In Canada, your tax money goes to funding propaganda accounts on social media. Every post from this profile is just straight up lying to you about Bill C-22 and its consequences.
The bill can force any business that so much as touches the internet in Canada to store metadata about what you do for a year, so that law enforcement can have access to it if needed.
This is like saying "No no, the police aren't watching you through your windows and writing down everything you do... they're just forcing your landlord to install cameras in each room and keep a year of footage so that if police ever need to check, the evidence exists."

[David T.S. Fraser @privacylawyer]

Currently, the cops can do this, but they have to convince a judge that it is necessary and proportionate in light of the gravity of the crime. After Bill C-22, all phones can be ordered to be come with spyware so they'll be able to flip a switch and do this.

[Tablesalt 🇨🇦🇺🇸 @Tablesalt13]

We've learned this week that the CIA and CSIS have the ability to turn on your phone's microphone and listen in.

We also learned that police in Ontario are also CURRENTLY doing this.

BUT, its so secretive, they would rather DROP serious cases than admit it as evidence.

Another conspiracy theory turned true.

[Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms @JCCFCanada]

Public Safety Canada (@Safety_Canada) has now received its second Community Note on X over misleading claims about its proposed surveillance legislation, Bill C-22, the Lawful Access Act.

The government claims that all G7 countries have lawful access frameworks with “technical obligations” for electronic service providers. But the technical obligations envisioned under Bill C-22 go much further by proposing broad metadata retention requirements that have failed legal challenges abroad. The Court of Justice of the European Union has already rejected broad mandatory metadata retention measures as incompatible with fundamental privacy rights. Canadians should be asking why Ottawa is pushing surveillance powers that courts in other democratic jurisdictions have already found excessive.

[Michael Geist @mgeist]

RCMP’s justification for mandatory metadata retention? The ability to track everyone in the vicinity of a crime scene. In other words, Bill C-22 will create a national surveillance map capable of tracing where you have been and with whom you communicate.

Reminds me of the time CSIS wanted to wiretap one of our Cpanel servers with > 500 separate websites on it to investigate one domain.

We told them "no", they had to narrow the scope to their actual target and get the proper paperwork.

Under C-22, would they take that for answer? 🙄

[Roman Baber @Roman_Baber]

C-22 will force telecoms & internet companies to store & file and all your metadata (call logs, message logs, geolocations etc.) for 365 days, without suggesting any crime was committed!

It's a violation of section 8 Charter protection against Arbitrary Search and Seizure!

@0UTR0EG0 I only see green! What kind of screens y'all have?

[M Ely @ckly2000]

@mukund I don't think they can refuse cash, after all it is a legal tender for all debts private and public... Just refuse to pay card and wait for police if needed, then they'll accept cash with no tips quite well.

[M Ely @ckly2000]

@KaynakNews In this world today it is indeed a privilege to have a person talk to you, as opposed to dealing with a dumb terminal.

[M Ely @ckly2000]

@commonman801 @Rainmaker1973 Did you ever ride a tricycle? Cause that's what that stroller-bike effectively is. They are more stable at slow speeds, but they are much less stable than the trailer at higher speeds and in turns as they won't let you lean into the turn.

@joyfulframes Only he should've pulled it while the semi was blocking the road. Otherwise he's exposed to be hit by another vehicle in the blind corner.

@bygulsxy It's dovetail
