Feds urging Canadians to use VPNs while introducing Bill C-22 which makes VPNs functionally illegal
Bill C-22, the Lawful Access Act introduced in March, would compel electronic service providers to build surveillance capabilities into their systems and retain user metadata for up to a year.
Would grant the public safety minister the power to issue secret orders requiring specific providers to develop technical capabilities for law enforcement and would prohibit those providers from even disclosing that the order exists.

Every program employs a "back door" somewhere for the creator of the program to code the program. Bill C-22 wants to hang a welcome sign on the door available for law enforcement and any nefarious actor.

Any Albertans on here care to add their 2bits about just WTF is going on re separation?
And as a side bar, as an ex Albertan, I was a card carrying member of the Free the West thing in the 80's when Trudeau Sr tried to fuck Alberta out of its resources. After I had moved to Vancouver too, that anger lingered. So I get part of the issue but there has to be more than just alt right BS.

Data from the 2024/25 fiscal year shows 59 per cent of First Nations in Canada are not meeting the requirements of the First Nations Financial Transparency Act, and non-compliance has increased substantially from almost zero (near complete compliance) in 2014/15, when Ottawa stopped enforcing violations.
The absence of enforcement of the act means there are virtually no financial consequences if leaders within First Nations governments do not complete the required financial audits.
Crucially, the amount of monies provided to First Nations by Ottawa is not insubstantial. In 2024/25, for instance, Ottawa spent over $32 billion for Indigenous groups across the country.
https://www.todayville.com/over-hal...r-comply-with-the-financial-transparency-act/
Annual planned spending for Indigenous Services Canada (ISC) is $24.09 billion for the 2026–27 fiscal year. When combined with Crown-Indigenous Relations and Northern Affairs Canada (CIRNAC), annual federal spending on Indigenous priorities has reached roughly $63 billion.
Sixty-three billion Canadians dollars every year. Coincidentally, National defence spending in Canada also valued at $63 billion in '25/'26 budget.

Canada’s Diaspora Extortion Pipeline, From Student Visas to Shootings-for-Hire
The Peel operation the most concrete strike yet against a phenomenon that has saturated Surrey, British Columbia, even further than the networks active in Ontario, according to one law enforcement source.
Canada’s extortion crisis targeting Indo-Canadian communities being driven by international organized crime that has exploited an entire industry of designated learning institutes and immigration consultant shops through massive fraud, coercing vulnerable student migrants into serving in extortion squads — with brazen shootings now occurring on a near-daily basis in Surrey, the epicenter of a threat now spreading through Toronto, Edmonton, and Winnipeg.
A contender for the British Columbia Conservative leadership, framed money laundering as “the engine driving drug trafficking, fentanyl deaths, gang violence, and extortion across our province,” and argued that British Columbia “has become a major hub for transnational organized crime.
Ottawa lost control of its borders during a massive increase in immigration under the Trudeau Liberals, and now lacks the capacity to counter rampant scams tainting sectors of the economy tied to immigration, foreign-student education, and the job placements that lead to citizenship. A pattern long documented in Chinese diaspora communities, where human smugglers known as snakeheads built underground parallel economies; the same phenomenon, government sources confirm, now proliferating across Indian communities in Canada.
A would-be immigrant is routed through a consultant’s firm into a designated learning institute, handed “a garbage English course that gets you a work permit,” then funneled into a relative’s trucking company and into controlled housing.
Students vanish from campuses within months, the source said, feeding a pool of 47,175 missing international students nationwide.
Press Ottawa for “a federal racketeering law, full data sharing from Fintrac to our police, and immediate improvements to security at Delta Port where less than one percent of containers are currently searched.”

Decades old news hasn't changed much. Rank-and-file Canadians become as much a target in VPN compromising Bill C-22. A result no racketeering law. Canadian prosecutors won't charge individuals connected to an ongoing criminal enterprise.

The Canadian Debt problem. Its a political add (just ignore that but pay attention to the money debt), but the graphics is what is nice to see..

More from the Liberal nanny state that wants to be in every aspect of our lives.
OK so after watching the Manitoba premier fact check the Alberta Premier I am getting it that this is very much alt right wing BS.
Make the law where if it involves downloading or up loading of copyright material, the VPN does not have to provide evidence. Everything else is fair game to catch criminals and terrorists. I believe that most of the disagreement with the bill is the fact that ordinary people would be caught up in downloading/uploading copyright material. Or Am I missing something there.
Anybody have another topic to add to to eliminate from the bill.
Also I do believe the Fed government should tax the online social media for news input. Its pennies for these multi-national billionaire streaming and social media sites. Tax them on # of users, bandwidth (the news downloads). Have a chart for increased downloads, the more downloads the more tax...
Sooner or later the government will look at this as a form of income, or at least to support news channels, with all income to new channels being publicly reported. The last 20 years its been a terrible ordeal in determining what news is reporting both sides of an issue. Taxing social media and using that money takes away the partisanship of the government in power (using taxpayers money for their own propaganda).
VICTORIA — A private-members bill to mandate dash cameras on all commercial vehicles travelling B.C. highways has passed unanimously through the B.C. legislature.
Makes sure that when a crash happens the evidence isn't lost, disputed or "buried in a yearlong investigation."
The bill will come into force six months after receiving royal assent.

Sorry not Sorry... these are the facts. Only in the last 5 years has military spending gone over 25 billion a year, mostly due to Carney. I still not a fan of Carney due to ties to Brookfield and his stupid policy on CO2 emmissions which holds back alot of investment in Canada and in the Canadian Economy.
Canada needs to be self sufficient in everything:
1. Food -- Canada needs to grow all its food, not import food in winter months. Means building Greenhouses for winter food production.
2. Gas and Oil production: Refine oil in Canada, along with the industries that oil products make-- mostly plastics (plexi-glass etc.)
3. Housing: With things like wildfires and natural disasters, most new housing should be built with cement (self -healing cement) which will last centuries. Also look at the war in Ukraine with apt building being hit by drones. A cement apartment building would withstand the attack better. Another fact to consider is that the wood we use, need to grow another 40 to 60 years to get better wood products. Sawdust and plastic wood??
4. Electronics: phones, chips, all types of electronics.
5. Steel production: From raw iron ore to alloy steels and other metals Canada needs to be a lead producer of titanium, aluminum, nickel, chromium, etc.To refine these metals here in Canada.
One of the important things for Canada to do is to stop exporting raw materials and produce the stuff we need in Canada. This will provide jobs for alot of Canadians if we do this.
The biggest thing Ontario has to do is to make more advanced highways to transport bulk and heavy items. Currently the highway system in Ontario is too conjested through its major cities and towns.
On the prairies a canal system from Alberta to Churchill in Manitoba needs to be looked at.
Also a tunnel through the rockies for heavy trains/transport trailers.
Due to climate change the prairies need to look at their water supply. A water pipeline from the Pacific (using Reverse Osmosis) to the interior of Alberta could make up water shortages that could happen in the future. (Look at the Colorado River Valley system and how dry its become).
Project 1. Water for California and Colorado: supply Electricity to make water in California, to top off local reservoirs and a pipe line to the Colorado River Valley System (Boulder Dam and Lake Meade). build Solar Farms in Colorado/Arizona also to supply electrical power to this project. When dams are topped off, the electricity can be sold to help offset construction costs. What you are building are 1. Reverse Osmosis plants, 2. Water pipeline, 3. Solar Farms
Germany, ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS) Type 212CD
South Korea, Hanwha Ocean KSS III
The Canadian navy in the market for 12 conventionally powered submarines.
The government of Prime Minister Mark Carney is expected to make a decision by the end of June on which proposal to accept — a bid by Germany's ThyssenKrupp Marine Systems (TKMS), or South Korea's Hanwha Ocean.
Germany this week revealed that TKMS has the capacity to deliver four Type 212CDs by 2036. Until this point, been reluctant to commit to a precise timeline.
https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/submarines-defence-navy-germany-canada-norway-9.7217410
South Korea first delivery by 2032. South Korea KSS III vertical launch tubes. The maximum lethal configuration to attack inland land targets. The German - Norwegian 212CD maximum stealth and interoperability with traditional allies.
Really wonder for what the Royal Canadian Navy critical requirement for "maximum lethality" could be used and whose political agenda being served. Canada’s or something else.
Clearly no clue whatsoever on the cost/logistics/implementation of massive pie-in-the-sky, daydream prjects.
Try suggesting something that can actually be done.
Congratulations to Mark Carney.
Canada now the only G7 nation in recession, and he did it in only one year.

In the 1950 the St Lawrence Seaway project was made to help the economy of Ontario and Quebec. Why shouldn't the Federal government help to build the economy in AB, Sask and MB?
This is one of the reason the western provinces are at a disadvantage under Ontario and Quebec. Alberta is right that more of their natural resource (prov responsibility) should be spent in Alberta. Pretty much Alberts's oil has floated money for Federal equalization to keep the population stable, otherwise Quebec wouldn't exist anymore as workers from there would head out west to where jobs were being created... How do the prairies get their products to market. It goes through the US which has a better transport system than Canada has.
If the cost of oil is going to go up and it will, having a mass transport (river canal system in the prairies), would benefit products from the prairies to go to Churchill MB and then onward to Europe. As of right now most prairie grain went to Thunder Bay to be shipped out on foreign ships. The US has a policy that a foreign ship can only go into 1 port and then leave the USA. This forces only America ships to ship cargo from port to port in America, helping to keep its ship building industry alive, while most shipping went to Japan (70s), Korea (80s), China (2000s). Right now the only shipbuilding in Canada is local small boats, no cargo vessels or its a Federal Government contract that is keeping Vancouver shipyards (American owned), Quebec shipyard or St John (Canadian owned) shipyards alive...
Canada needs to institute a policy to eliminate foreign ships on the Great Lakes, making only Canadian ships able to ship grain. Or build a canal on the prairies and hold the grain in silos at Churchill or in Montreal Area.
Canada used to have massive infrastructure in railway, but that has disappeared over the years. Mostly due to transport trucks... so when oil gets too high, everything get higher price and inflation gets out of control...
The stuff I talk about is what Canada will need in the future, to be a competitive Economy with the rest of the world... People have to get out of the mindset that Canada is only a resource country, when it needs to be a manufacturing country....
I point out that Colorado River System (under drought) so that Canada can prepare for the time the prairies will need water when the climate changes. The biggest natural disaster Canada could have is the draining of water from the Great Lakes which will impact the climate in Ontario (biggest manufacturing area in Canada). Canada may hold 10% of the worlds fresh water, but without forethought, it will drain from our lives/finger pretty fast.
Right now the Federal government is going after gold, rare earth metals in mining to sale on the world market without keeping a strategic amount for future use. the way mining works in Canada is that the company makes the profit without paying too much upfront; in return the company helps to make roads to reomote areas and providing access to places that were not accessible before. So the first years the company writes off infrastructure vs profits and the government gets nothing. Canada need to change the process and charge taxes on any profits made first, and not profits - infrastructure cost first, then taxes on the lowered profits. Canada need to also take a 20% take on all gold and rare earth metal upfront, not related to taxes.
pls note the mining industry is the worst environmental outcome, of any industry due to the processes involved. they leave toxic pond tailings and chemical spills in the environment and cover it up. Fines for CEO and management have to be higher and also fines to the people holding stock in those mining companies that get caught violating the environmental rules.
People who are not looking to the future are the people holding the old system because they have money invested in the old system.
Canada need to make more iron and steel if it economy is to not survive, but thrive. This CO2 restrictions when Canada makes less than 2% Global emmissions is politicians being fucktards.... Its a not in my backyard... then fucken move.
You can't turn Canada into a energy powerhouse without getting your basic manufacturing right first....
