Canada Shelves C-30 Domestic Spying Bill

Immense Opposition to Very Controversial Bill

The last few years Canada has been trying their best to mirror the warrantless domestic surveillance policies of their neighbor to the south. One big difference? Public opposition appears to have stopped some of these efforts in their tracks. According to the CBC, Canadian lawmakers have shelved controversial surveillance bill C-30 due to public outcry. The bill would have required that ISPs make their networks surveillance-ready without the use of warrants, which of course in intelligence land means the carriers have been handing over this data without warrants for years. A new bill, C-55, would legally allow warrantless data acquisition only "in relatively rare, urgent situations."
