Ezra Levant: Thanks to floor crossers, Carney can now ram through his spy bill

Using his newly acquired majority, Carney’s government has moved to dramatically curtail debate on Bill C-22, the so-called lawful access bill.

The answer? It is a direct assault on parliamentary democracy and your freedoms.

Last year, Mark Carney won the election with just 43 percent of the vote. That delivered him 169 seats out of 343 in the House of Commons, three short of the 172 needed for a majority. Canadians deliberately gave him a minority government. Sometimes voters do that on purpose, wanting to keep a politician on a shorter leash and force him to work with Parliament rather than dominate it.

But Carney was not content with the verdict of the electorate. While the political establishment spent years warning that Donald Trump might refuse to accept election results, Carney set about changing his own. By persuading a string of opposition MPs to cross the floor, he secured the majority Canadians had declined to give him at the ballot box.

The obvious question is why? Justin Trudeau governed for nearly a decade without a formal majority, relying on NDP support to pass budgets and survive confidence votes. There was little reason to believe Carney could not have done the same.

Ezra’s answer is that Carney wanted something more than legislative support. He wanted the ability to shut down parliamentary scrutiny itself.

That is now on full display.

Using his newly acquired majority, Carney’s government has moved to dramatically curtail debate on Bill C-22, the so-called lawful access bill. The legislation would compel technology companies to retain user data for up to a year and make that information available to government authorities. Civil liberties advocates have raised serious concerns about privacy, government overreach and the expansion of state surveillance powers.

The concerns are hardly theoretical. Canadians have already witnessed a government willing to freeze bank accounts and invoke extraordinary powers during the trucker protests. Mark Carney himself, while living in Europe at the time, wrote in The Globe and Mail that Ottawa should take a harder line against convoy participants and their supporters. It is therefore not surprising that critics view Bill C-22 as part of a broader push toward greater state control.

What makes the situation particularly troubling is not only the substance of the legislation but the manner in which it is being advanced.

The government has introduced a motion declaring that, notwithstanding any standing order or usual practice of the House, Bill C-22 will be pushed through Parliament on an accelerated timetable. In plain English, the normal rules are being set aside.

Committee members will have just 30 minutes to complete clause-by-clause consideration of the bill. Any remaining amendments will be deemed moved and voted upon without further debate. The legislation will then move rapidly through report stage and third reading with strictly limited speaking time for opposition parties and virtually no opportunity for extended scrutiny.

For a bill that constitutes one of the most significant expansions of government surveillance powers in Canadian history, Parliament is being afforded remarkably little time to examine the details.

Professor Michael Geist, one of Canada’s leading experts on technology law and digital policy, has publicly criticized the government’s approach. Geist argues that hearings are being cut short, amendments are being rushed through without proper discussion, and the public is being denied the transparency normally expected during the legislative process. His warning is not about partisan politics but about the erosion of parliamentary accountability.

This is why Carney needed those extra seats.

The issue is not merely that opposition MPs crossed the floor. It is what those additional seats are now being used to accomplish. This is a double violation of democratic principles: first, altering the balance of Parliament after voters had already spoken; and second, using that altered balance to restrict Parliament’s ability to debate, amend and scrutinize legislation.

The implications extend beyond a single bill. Across Canada, the United Kingdom, France and Australia, governments are increasingly embracing online surveillance measures, age-verification requirements and expanded regulatory control over digital spaces. These initiatives are almost always presented as necessary protections for children or public safety, yet they also require citizens to surrender more privacy and give governments more information about their online activities.

It is a stark contrast to the vision of technological progress championed by figures such as Elon Musk, who promote innovation, space exploration, artificial intelligence and the expansion of human potential. One approach sees technology as a tool of freedom and advancement. The other increasingly treats it as something to be monitored, regulated and controlled.

This is what an unchecked majority can look like under Mark Carney: Parliament reduced to a rubber stamp, debate curtailed, privacy placed at risk and major legislation rushed through with minimal scrutiny.

Canadians deserve better.

The democratic process only matters if it is respected when it becomes inconvenient. If Parliament is no longer permitted to properly examine legislation, question witnesses or challenge the government of the day, then the institution itself is diminished. That should concern every Canadian regardless of political affiliation.

WOW 🇨🇦 in Q1 2026, Canada had 1 growth stage VC deal worth about $1 million CAD, and the United States had 3,336 VC deals for $267.2 BILLION in deal value

This is not sustainable for Canada. Something must change or the decline will accelerate

🇨🇦 CMHC confirmed it. 4,376 empty condos in Vancouver. Up 76% in one year.

The market delivered its verdict on these units.

Nobody wanted them at these prices.
Carney’s response: $3.2B to buy what the market rejected.

The same Carney who chaired Brookfield -
one of Canada’s largest real estate and infrastructure firms.

The same Carney who held $6.8M in Brookfield options before becoming PM.

The same Carney now behind an ethics screen that Democracy Watch says covers 99% of government decisions anyway.

A third of these units cost over $1 million.

Development charges cut 50% for the same developers who overpriced them.

The Canadian who saved for decades: still priced out.

The developer who mispriced: made whole.

Orwell called it Animal Farm.

CMHC calls it unabsorbed inventory.
Carney calls it affordable housing.

Canadians saving for a down payment call it something else entirely.

The facts are not in dispute.
The beneficiaries are not in dispute.
The bill is not in dispute.
Only the outrage seems optional.

🚨 THIS IS CANADA NOT THE MIDDLE EAST!

Islamic call to prayer just BLASTED over loudspeakers in downtown Regina from a rooftop across from City Hall. 2-3 minutes of this foreign supremacist chant, audible for a full kilometre. A “test” with police permission they want to make permanent every Friday.

We don’t need or want foreign pagan Islamic anything blasted into our Canadian cities. You don’t understand what you are inviting in and allowing to happen.

SHUT THIS DOWN IMMEDIATELY!
Canadians should NEVER have to be subjected to this or tolerate a foreign supremacist religion imposing its traditions on our country and people.

File noise complaints with Regina Police non-emergency: 306-777-6500

Demand @CityofRegina revoke the permit NOW.

Enough is enough. 🇨🇦🔥

C’est dans la région de Toronto, là où il y a beaucoup de tensions entre communautés sikhes, surtout autour des temples.

Inflation numbers for May are coming out tomorrow, but we already have some clues from June.

It's not just you — grocery shoppers are feeling the squeeze in the protein aisle.

After removing promotional outliers, salmon (+80.8%), ground beef (+80.6%), and pork chops (+57.3%) recorded the largest price increases between May 21 and June 21 — in just one month.

Chicken prices also climbed (+13.4%), as expected.

They keep saying the social media ban for kids under 16 is to “protect the children.”

Watch what actually happens when they get grilled.

In this Australian Senate hearing, the witness admits the quiet part out loud:

If you’re going to verify kids’ ages at that level of accuracy… **everyone** accessing social media will need age verification.

Not just the kids. Everyone.

And the “experts” they keep citing?

University of Cambridge Professor Sarah-Jayne Blakemore: the impact of social media on adolescent brains amounts to “almost nothing.”
Professor Denis Mareschal: “There is very little, if any, causal research… Almost everything is correlational.”

No real evidence.
Just the perfect excuse to force digital ID on the entire population.

This isn’t happening in one country.
It’s rolling out in 14 countries at the same time with almost identical wording.

And right on cue, the WEF’s own chart shows “Social Platforms” under their digital ID framework.

In Canada? Bill C-22 is already driving VPN companies out of the country while demanding they log your data “for security.”

They don’t need to ban social media for adults.
They just need to make it impossible to use without handing over your identity.

This was never about the kids.

It’s about control.

Canada First means rejecting every single one of these surveillance bills before the digital ID noose is fully tightened.

Le gouvernement Carney, pour qui vos parents et vos amis ont massivement votés, vient de vous enculer avec quatre LOIS qui vont vous empêcher de vous opposer à ce genre de démonstration, comme à Regina, où l’on fait maintenant l’appel à la prière!

1. C-8 2. C-9 3. C-22 4. C-34

Sous Carney, le Canada devient un état où il est maintenant criminel de vous opposer à ça parce que si vous le faites, vous serez considérez comme un propagandiste de la droite radicale qui fait la promotion de la haine.

Good job! Vous aviez peur de Trump? De Poilievre?

Comme disait Horacio Arruda: « La peur, ça fait faire des crisses de niaiseries! »

Quand vous regardez ce graphique, n’oubliez pas que le Canada est entouré d’océans et n’a qu’une seule frontière terrestre. Il y a encore plus de 300 000 réfugiés en cours de traitement, ce qui coûtera aux contribuables plus de 5 G$. Cela n’inclut pas les soins de santé, le logement, etc. Comment est-ce même possible ??

“Les promoteurs sont pris. Ils ne veulent pas vendre à perte. Ils ne peuvent pas se permettre de conserver indéfiniment ces unités vides.”

Sa solution: Les contribuables vont subventionner les promoteurs immobiliers qui ont pris de mauvaises décisions d’affaires. Le tout présenté avec ses cerises habituelles sur la crème chantilly (affordable housing…together…).

Monsieur le banquier, ici quelques observations:

• Risque et récompense vont ensemble. Le secteur privé (promoteurs, investisseurs) assume les profits quand le marché monte. Il doit aussi assumer les pertes quand il descend. Protéger les perdants avec l’argent des contribuables n’est pas viable.

• Le marché s’auto-corrige. Des unités vides à des prix trop élevés finissent par baisser jusqu’à trouver des acheteurs (investisseurs, acheteurs étrangers, etc.). Forcer les contribuables à subventionner des prix artificiellement élevés empêche cette correction et prolonge la crise du logement.

• Précédents coûteux. Les “bail out” socialisent les pertes tout en privatisant les gains. Au Canada, cela alourdirait encore la dette publique et les impôts, sans résoudre le problème.

Les promoteurs ont pris un risque entrepreneurial. Les pertes font partie du jeu. Les contribuables ne sont pas une assurance tous risques pour l’immobilier.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​

After 14 months, this is where 🇨🇦 is at with CUSMA negotiations. A virtual meeting July 1 in which it will go into an annual review process. "Things are going better with Mexico than with 🇨🇦." 🙄
There will be no tariff relief, our auto industry will drift south, the decline will continue. Surprisingly, @acoyne accurately assessed what this means (at the end). Carney, the "economic genius", fails again.

[JayGen 𝕏 er🇨🇦 @JayGenXer]

🇨🇦 Canada is always one incompetent step behind the UK — and Mark Carney is actively dragging us even closer to their failing model.

While the UK just ordered Apple, Google and every tech company to install device-scanning software on **every phone and computer** sold there (Signal called it “invisible surveillance infrastructure, switched on by default”), Carney’s government is building the Canadian version.

They’re not protecting kids.

They’re erecting a **digital Berlin Wall** around your life — with jail time waiting on the other side for whatever they decide is “hate” this week.

Disagree with the regime?
Call out the lies?
Quote the wrong Bible verse?
Point out the managed decline?

Don’t pass Go.
Don’t collect $200 (that’s reserved for the invaders they let in).
Straight to jail.

This isn’t theory anymore.
It’s the natural next step after C-9, C-22 and the rest of the surveillance bills they rammed through before running off on summer break.

The writing isn’t just on the wall — it’s being coded into your phone.

Canada First means rejecting this garbage before the wall is finished.
