“Protecting Canadians from Online Crime” is a laudable goal but not when this Bill’s real purpose is to circumvent the Supreme Courts ruling preserving Canadians constitutional rights. Bill C-13 creates a new offence of non-consensual distribution of intimate images but in doing so includes provisions for the forfeiture of property, preservation demands of electronic information, new production orders, new warrants to extend investigative powers for data and to enable tracking of individuals and transactions, makes it easier for police to intercept private communications and makes a spouse a compellable witness, intruding further upon the sanctity and privacy of marriage relationships…and more. It’s like using and elephant to stomp a mouse.
