And before you say "I'll use a VPN", Bill C-22 can mandate backdoors and mandatory logging for all VPNs that provide service to Canadians. This goes far beyond consistent interfaces and protocols for executing court-ordered intercept orders.

We need a COVID review in Canada as well, almost every one of our public health "leaders" are guilty of these obvious mistakes too.

doubly damning because we had a SARS inquiry that identified similar mistakes and they ignored them.

CleanUpYourMess.ca — Exposing Alberta's $60 billion aging well cleanup crisis Rural Albertans are being left to pay for oil companies' $60 billion cleanup bill. Share your story and help stop the Mature Asset Strategy.

"Despite strong corporate profits, the oil and gas industry isn't setting aside money for the cleanup of 300,000 unreclaimed wells across the province. Companies are also increasingly skipping out on municipal taxes, with over $250M in unpaid bills in 2024.."

Lawful Access is back: All about Bill C-22 (Spoiler alert: Part 2 is very troubling.) YouTube video by PrivacyLawyer - David Fraser

The new Bill C-22 (Lawful Access) will create new info demands and require "electronic service providers" to create new surveillance capabilities. Part 1 is improved from Bill C-2 but Part 2 is bad creating an expansive surveillance infrastructure. youtu.be/tZFbTYttuN8

We say we like efficiency, but then our current system is so, so wasteful.
Why isn't energy efficiency a Nation Building Project™ in Canada?

- It creates jobs
- It lowers emissions
- It makes life more *affordable*
