FWIW, my MP responded to my message confirming his opposition to C-22 and his understanding of this legislation as advancing provisions for mass surveillance.
Mine (Liberal) sent a form letter that stated strong support for it and claimed (falsely) that this just brings Canada into line with what its allies have already done.
Well I guess if our 'allies' do it... its fine or Canada. No need to think about it. Also.. FUCKING BULLSHIT, you're right its completely false.
I'm sorry to hear that. My MP responded with a thoughtful, lengthy, and well articulated message that seemed to be personally written and not made of LLM slop.
It made me glad I voted for him in our riding
