Canada's Bill C-2 (The Strong Borders Act) contains four mass surveillance trojans.They are:1) A ban on cash transactions over $10K - including smaller transactions that add up to more than $10KPenalties include fines totalling 3X the amount of the transaction.2) Canada Post and the cops can now open your mail. In the past letters were explicitly excluded from being opened "on reasonable suspicions". That language will be stricken from the Canada Post Act (it's four words that get taken out).3) Expands who has access to data obtained from covert data tracking on your phoneA lot of people here are flagging "cops can install trackers on your phone, even covertly!"Well you can all relax: That's already in the Criminal Code - what changes is who can access that data.To that end:4) ISPs can be ordered to wiretap your data without telling you and without a warrantThe bill introduces a supplementary piece of legislation called Supporting Authorized Access to Information Act (SAAIA)It creates a framework where ISPs can be ordered to intercept and tap data by the Ministry of public Safety, or CSIS, or the RCMP or those appointed by them without a warrant. Further, ISPs are then barred from telling the customer this has happened, and they can't disclose that they're under a gag order.
