C-30 and similar laws like it would very likely affect the personal privacy of countless people in various nations, including the United States, Canada, UK, Australia, Europe and other jurisdictions as per the nature of intelligence sharing agreements already in place.
Such poorly drafted legislation is a clear and present danger to the principles of democracy in a free society and indicative of the low quality of political discussion and lack of reasoned, intelligent debate in the halls of power.
This is a problem for the quality of our democracy, that liberty and justice are increasingly in a weakened state as the government police apparatus grows more powerful and operates with less oversight and accountability.view less
