Tech companies on Bill C-22

• Shopify @Shopify CEO Tobi Lütke @tobi warned that Bill C-22 could become a “death blow to Canadian tech viability” and make Canada “essentially unviable for those with choices on where to build.”

• Signal's @signalapp VP of Strategy & Global Affairs Udbhav Tiwari stated, "In its current form, Bill C-22 would convert the everyday tools Canadians rely on into a sprawling, insecure surveillance apparatus."

• Apple @Apple Senior Director of User Privacy & Child Safety Erik Neuenschwander warned that Bill C-22 allows the Government of Canada to force companies to break encryption by inserting backdoors into their products - “something Apple will never do.”

• Google's @Google Director of Government Affairs and Public Policy Jeanette Patell warned that Bill C-22 “goes well beyond lawful access regimes in other G7 democracies, and risks creating new surveillance infrastructure that would introduce serious security vulnerabilities, undermine user trust and hinder our ability to innovate and offer pro-privacy technologies.”

• Meta @Meta warned that Bill C-22 could require companies to build or maintain capabilities that weaken encryption and that could force providers to "install government spyware directly on their systems."

• Proton VPN @ProtonVPN General Manager David Peterson warned that complying with Bill C-22 could conflict with Swiss and European privacy obligations. He said, “Complying with foreign surveillance orders without Swiss legal process is a criminal offence...We’ll defend our Canadian users and never compromise them.”

• NordVPN @NordVPN stated that “there isn’t a scenario in which we would compromise our no-logs architecture or encryption protections" and that it would consider limiting or removing its Canadian presence.

• ExpressVPN @expressvpn warned, “Legislation that mandates data retention or technical access, however well-intentioned, undermines the security that millions of users rely on."

• DuckDuckGo @DuckDuckGo stated that "if the bill passes, we will be forced to stop offering our VPN in Canada."

• Windscribe @windscribe stated, “...they want to destroy the entire essence of our service to basically spy on its own citizens."

Privacy protects citizens. It also protects innovation.

Note: These statements were made before Bill C-22 was amended on June 18, 2026. In our view, those amendments did not meaningfully address concerns raised by tech companies, privacy experts, or civil liberties organizations. The companies above are free to tell Canadians whether the amendments have changed their assessment.

Erika Kirk: "My husband Charlie he wanted to save young men, just like the one who took his life...On the cross, our savior said, 'Father, forgive them, for they not know what they do.' That young man. I forgive him."

[☘️𝕃𝕦𝕔𝕜𝕪 𝕄𝕔𝔾𝕖𝕖‎ @LuckyMcGee]

For those liberals who say that Charlie Kirk was hateful to transgender people, explain yourselves. Most of you have literally never heard him, and are just parroting what main stream media talking heads have told you about him.

THIS is how Charlie debated and interacted with folks struggling with confusion and dysphoria concerning their biology.👇🏼

[Charlie Kirk @charliekirk11]

You can tell a lot about a person by how they react when someone dies.

[Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson]

We wept bitterly putting this together...

Charlie Kirk did not fear death. Charlie told us what his legacy would be. Charlie's greatest passion was his faith in Jesus Christ.

Just hours before he was assassinated, Charlie stood on stage, openly proclaiming his love for Jesus Christ. Unafraid, unwavering, and full of conviction. He lived every moment guided by that faith, and in the end, he was taken home by his Savior.

Charlie is a true Christian martyr.

His example is not just inspiring, it is a call to all of us. To stand firm in our beliefs, to shine light into darkness, speak truth and to live boldly in our faith. Charlie showed us what it means to live, and die, with purpose.

This is the legacy he leaves...

BREAKING: Tesla has just announced that new vehicles from the factory now drive themselves autonomously to their designated loading dock without human intervention, a major step forward!

One of my biggest growth moments as a programmer was realizing that libraries I use are just code, and I could read them directly rather than puzzling it out from the docs.

Even today, I am surprised how much faster I move every time I start reading a layer I'm building on.
