tl;dr: A Canadian parliamentary petition calls for the withdrawal of Bill C-22 (Lawful Access Act), which would require "core providers" to retain metadata on all Canadians for up to a year without suspicion, and grant the Minister of Public Safety power to compel any electronic service provider—including encrypted messaging apps and VPNs—to implement interception capabilities. Petitioners argue this constitutes unconstitutional mass surveillance under the Charter, creates exploitable cybersecurity vulnerabilities (citing the Salt Typhoon attack), and demand future legislation explicitly prohibit weakening encryption.
