Well well, seems like this is happening all over the world now isnt it? Now we as canadians will not be allowed to have an Online alias. According to this bill, they will also have surveillance powers for your internet connect, will be able to attain all of your personal information, and be able to track specific types of data, be able to access it without a warrant. AND THEY DONT HAVE TO TELL YOU.
If you are investigated at your local isp, the isp is not required to call you, and tell you about it. Neither are the cops. Goodbye downloading, Goodbye privacy. Fight this bill canada, We cannot allow this.

What a joke, anonymity is necessary for the internet. It prevents a large number of crimes, like real world stalking. But hey, anonymity protects internet users and actually at present it even protects the government from people finding out they pump out so much BS. Of course if this passes, government trolls will be anonymous but the government will say they are real.
Personally, the trend bothers the hell out of me, but I will continue to use the nom de plume I use on my book because all of the alphabet agencies like CSIS and the CIA already know who that name belongs to and since that is a fact, they don't have a case.
If as it has become patently clear, that one must protect one's self from the government since the government is enacting laws that place the general population (a term used in prisons) in harm's way, the government has to be removed/fired since it does not hold to the interests of its employers, the people. We allegedly have mechanisms for their firing called elections, another joke and since the mass media is in their or their handlers pockets you can't even get the information out there to show all the malfseance and criminal behavior.
As I have always suggested, remove your money from the banks, stop paying all of your bills and bring this BS to a full and complete stop. BUT EVERYONE HAS TO DO IT! It is the most effective way of protesting the policies of these @ssclowns through civil disobedience. It's non-violent and will bring the entire fraudulent system of government down around itself along with the ponzi scheme called the Bank of Canada.
And remember, Russell Williams (serial rapist/murderer) was Stephen Harper's pilot and who did Russell Williams go to university with? Paul Bernardo! Another serial rapist murder. Now someone tell me all this crap isn't planned and covered up, because if CSIS knows what I did for the South Africans, then surely they can figure out what happened in their own backyard. So is CSIS and the prime minister's office stupid, negligent or do they all play for the same "team," the one that's screwing everyone in Canada out of their future? I'd say it's bird's of a feather and all that.....
I wish I was a younger man....

Canadians have a hair trigger we will soon have enough and when the government gets too sickening for the general public we'll just have a mail strike,garbage strike or public servant strike. People in general are getting tired of it. People I know that never had anything bad to say about the government before are now waking up and realizing they are going too far.
I think the revolution should start in Newfoundland infect PEI and then spread into the other Maritime Provinces. And once were all riled up we will just hitch hike from there or take VIA or the trans Canada what ever is quicker.And join the rest of Canada in mooning the Parliament building chanting Twisted sister "No were not going to take it". Its time to enforce the Charter Of Rights And Freedoms Act which Harper is Violating. Thats treason.Harper should be arested for being a traitor to Canada. Conservatives can go suck a fart out of my chair cushion.
You can also substitute chair cushion for arse.Which ever smells sarcastically the best.Or even substitute fart for "wet fart".

I would love to sign the petition, but is this a reputable site? It would be ironic to get phisshed on a thread discussing internet privacy and remaining anonymous
If anyone can validate that website, I will gladly sign the petition and send it to everyone I know in the morning. I would look into this site now but I'm half asleep.
I will check back later.
To advance and support a media communications system in Canada that adheres to the principles of access, choice, diversity, innovation and openness. OpenMedia.ca is a national, non-partisan, non-profit organization working to advance and support an open and innovative communications system in Canada. OpenMedia.ca provides a united voice at CRTC hearings, facilitates citizen engagement, and works towards the creation of a solid Internet infrastructure. We strive to make media and telecommunications more transparent, with broader and more representative public participation. Our job is to shine a spotlight on key media policy developments, and provide essential tools and information for citizen engagement.
Thanks to your support, Bell and the other Big Telecoms started to back down on controlling their independent competitors and the CRTC (finally!) began talking about serving and protecting the Canadian public. This happened because hundreds of thousands of Canadians like you were backing us, and the CRTC knew it. We’re waiting for fall to get the CRTC’s final decision, but in the meantime, big phone and cable companies are not giving up without a fight—in fact they’re doubling down on greed. These companies are raising prices across the board while they still can, and trying to cozy up to policymakers: Bell has just appointed former Industry Minister Jim Prentice as a board member, and Telus has done the same with former Conservative MP Stockwell Day.

Thank you for your response, But never give up, no matter what age you are, no matter what you do for a living, everyone can help
44,000 is a lot of people, but consider this for a moment. What if it doesnt matter? 44,000 signatures is a lot of signatures. Im sure the bill is stagnated at the moment, but really, if they wanted to enact it. They would regardless of the amount of signatures.
When that day comes. I take to the streets. And i bring everyone i can with me.

I don't give up, it's not in my nature. The problem is that we are all apparently incapable of getting together against these clowns. There's no way they will ever let us use their mass media against them. The only alternative is for all of us to commit to telling 100 people each what is going on and hope that when the crunch comes, they don't all turn into jellyfish. A survey or petition is not enough.
Before you take the streets, talk to me and maybe I'll send you some countermeasures ;-)
Cheers - Dave

Where are internet aliases most commonly used by Canadians today? They are almost universally used in internet forums, bloggers’ comments sections, and comment sections of other websites. This law will make using an alias a crime. It is not likely they will try to prosecute everyone using an alias online but it will give the government the means to identify and criminalize anyone who writes anything the government disapproves of. Imagine an internet where Canadians were forbidden by law to speak anonymously.

Whilst I disapprove of the law, I must point out that the Internet has never been anonymous...
