Submission on Bill C-13: the Protecting Canadians from Online Crime Act

As part of our work on Cyber Misogyny, we made a submission to the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Justice and Human Rights regarding Bill C-13, the Protecting Canadians from Online Crime Act. We urged the Committee to recommend splitting the Bill in order to pass the provisions that address hate and misogyny online, while subjecting the majority of the Bill’s provisions, which greatly expand state surveillance and law enforcement powers, to comprehensive scrutiny and analysis.
