Internet surveillance is good for Canadians

Really! That's what the Conservative Communists want you to believe as does CSIS.

Carleton University counter-terrorism expert Martin Rudner had the same message when he spoke to CKNW Radio in Vancouver two weeks ago.

The Distinguished Research Professor at Carleton University said that Canada needs Bill C-30 because it still faces threats from terrorist organizations seeking to mobilize Muslim youth in western democracies.

He said the legislation is not a violation of privacy and used an interesting metaphor comparing Internet surveillance to license plate surveillance.

"Nobody is anonymous going down the street in a car. You have a license plate. Your car is visible," he told CKNW host Jon McComb.

Is that not what supporters of the gun registry said? The Conservatives argued that the Registry intruded on peoples rights yet they are emulating Communist China with a celebration of Bethune and now an attack on the rights of Canadians.

What is wrong with the police monitoring certain individuals without a warrant.... it is a Communist practice. In my opinion they should monitor those they feel are a threat  and, if they find there is sufficient reason to consider them a threat to Canada, then they must obtain a warrant. Any data obtained prior to the issuance of the warrant should not be admissable in court.

However it means nothing to complain or attempt to persuade this government to alter their attack on Democracy since they are nothing but bullies and will force the legislation through no matter how wrong it is. And, once they have accomplished this intrusion, what will they do next?

CSIS is already monitoring certain individuals, as I once wrote here, my son in-law recieved a strange message on his cell phone, rather than call it right away he had the security department at his work check the number first. Andy works in IT and has high security clearance through the RCMP. He writes and edits programs for the banking industry.

When security checked the number they told him it was a high security line and that he should call it immediately. It was a CSIS number and he was told that they wanted to talk with him NOW. Turns out that one of his contacts, a muslim, was under CSIS watch and while monitoring him they obtained Andy's cell number. The two were simply trading contacts for job searches. If they can do that now they can do that without Bill C-30.
