Canadian Lawful Access Legislation

EvilAlien writes "In Canada, existing legislation covers access to telephone records, disclosure of customer information in accordance with the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA) and other means compelling the release of information. However, the laws regulating access to these networks for Canadian law enforcement and national security groups are only under development. The Department of Justice has released their Lawful Access Consultation Document to get feedback from all the stakeholders including industry, civil liberties groups, and the legal community."

Re:This doesn't matter

That's pretty ignorant. I am Canadian, but I don't say that American issues don't matter. DMCA doesn't matter because I'm Canadian, so Slashdot shouldn't post about it, is that how I should think?

Perhaps you should go back to the dump and find your soul. It's good to care about what happens in countries besides your own.
