Conservatives and other opposition parties sought to address privacy concerns in Bill C-22, but the Liberal government shut down debate and fast-tracked the bill.
NDP MP Jenny Kwan, who represented her party during the committee’s study, also criticized the process and said the amended bill “did not fix the central problem: Canadians are still being asked to trust broad surveillance powers, secret orders, and future regulations that Parliament itself has never fully examined.”
Are ‘future regulations’ like british Henry VIII clauses?
