Read the piece, didn’t see lawful access mentioned
I just read through the piece you linked. The only thing as far as I know that might be lawful access is: “Giving law enforcement up-to-date tools to fight crime in today’s high-tech communications environment;” Which is general enough that it doesn’t say much.

@Ben Harack
That’s the sentence they use instead of lawful access or anything that might elaborate on the bill.

Somebody ask the professor!
What is this you’ve dug up here? Is this “warrantless DPI”? Backdoor to https?

When you get a chance, Mr. Chairman.

Internet Censorship
This story is being buried by mainstream media. Thanks for making this public. The proposed legislation is a scary slippery slope to Canadians losing all civil rights. The US is forcing us to adopt a police state so that they can fight their wars. I wish that Canadian politicians were intelligent enough to see that this is both a dangerous and ineffective idea.
