Dear ISOC-Canada Board members,<br class="">
<br class="">
I wanted to bring your attention to a letter drafted by Laura Tribe,
Canadian Journalists for Free Expression (cc'd), expressing
opposition to Bill C-51. The hope is to show broad opposition to
this Bill, and I wanted to write you to ask whether ISCO-Canada
would consider endorsing it.<br class="">
<br class="">
Bill C-51 has many flaws, a number of which are antithetical to an
open Internet. These include online censorship powers that could be
applied to Internet platforms. They will also grant intelligence
agencies the ability to take unspecified 'measures' in order to
disrupt broadly framed security threats, including digital
disruption measures against Canadians. The act is open-ended as to
the types of digital 'measures' that would be acceptable under this
provision. The experience of how agencies in other jurisdictions
have used such powers in the foreign intelligence context tells us
it could include disruption of digital infrastructure and
communications networks, use of malware and spyware, digital
reputational attacks and more. Finally, the Bill adopts a blunt and
unbalanced solution to cybersercurity information-sharing that will
permit almost any government agency to disclose Canadian information
to our intelligence agencies to alleviate cyber threats, but without
the safeguards necessary to protect privacy in this context. All of
this will occur in without any meaningful and effective oversight or
accountability.<br class="">
