The Canadian government is preparing to give away Canadians’ digital lives—to U.S. police, to the Donald Trump administration, and possibly to foreign spy agencies.

I think many of us have forgotten that Harper signed an agreement with the US in 2012 (that took effect on January 17, 2025) where "... the automated exchange of biographical and biometric information on permanent residents of both Canada and the United States" is now shared.

Bill C-2 is simply part 2 of Harper's continued bullshit legacy that continues to haunt us years later.

Buy some PLTU, because Palantir will be embedded into every government world wide by direction of credit rating agencies.

That's my thoughts on the matter anyways, DOGE was a data grab for government data, and the Musk/Trump fallout was fake to cover it up. People buying it at a 5x PEG aren't irrationally dumb.
