Don't need that law.
They can already just buy that information from MSoft, Google, Apple and the credit card companies.

Fur gawds sake...read the bill instead of posting some wackos bantering . Become of aware of the facts, not BS.

If you are arguing against a subject matter expect at least have an opinion. Canadian criminal defence lawyer with a special interest in firearms and weapons law, qualifies as such IMHO.What bonafides do you have?

Canada’s Bill C-2 Opens The Floodgates To U.S. Surveillance

The bill will also allow for the introduction of encryption backdoors. Forcing companies to surveil their customers is allowed under the law (see part 15), as long as these mandates don’t introduce a “systemic vulnerability”—a term the bill doesn’t even bother to define.

If Canada moves forward with Bill C-2 and a CLOUD Act deal, American law enforcement could demand data from Canadian tech companies in secrecy—no notice to users would be required. Companies could also expect gag orders preventing them from even mentioning they have been forced to share information with US agencies.

And if they force backdoors, then that information will be given to Russia, NK, and China too.

Backdoors in encryption make encryption meaningless.
