NOW THATS NEWS
Jurrassic Bill
“To say it stifles innovation is an understatement. The bill was obsolete the moment it was drafted.”
I completely agree with that statement. Technology innovation is leading to a complete different world compared to the one depicted and regulated by C-61. Our politicians are completely ignorant when it comes to technology and they are easily deceived by the big corporation who do not care at all of innovation (when it means less profit for them).
“The consumer marketplace is increasingly going beyond that apathy to a type of lawlessness. They’ll just ignore the government because it’s so irrelevant.”
… exactly.
the conservatives are so out of touch with modern society… why bother. I bet most conservatives don’t even know what the internet is.
Laws are to be written by the people for the people. Not by big US business for big US business.
When will the conservatives create laws for Canadians by Canadians???
