Hey #Canada The Senate is not sitting this week so there is still time to contact your senators and ask them to reject Bill C-22. Contact information for all senators can be found at https://sencanada.ca/en/senators/?v=tiles I have read through all 105 profiles and for the most part our Senators are an impressive and accomplished group that I believe will listen to reason.

Perhaps @Paulatics could pass this toot along to the other Senators? Another major issue I have with Bill C-22 is the way it would be funded.

Just a recap: In June the Libs cut short all review of the bill with many groups not being given the opportunity to provide feedback. It seemed that the decision was predetermined like some type of kangaroo court (call it Ca...

Please contact your Canadian Senators as soon as possible and urge them to reject Bill C22. For anyone who believes the &quot;if you have nothing to hide&quot; crap. Here is an example of how every level of the justice system failed one person. &quot;How a single underscore led to an innocent Halifax man&#39;s conviction&quot; https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/nova-scotia/how-a-single-underscore-led-to-an-innocent-halifax-man-s-conviction-9.7283149 An innocent man spent 18 m...
