Default Bill C-30: Cops want you to pay new tax for them to spy on you.

http://www.michaelgeist.ca/content/view/6379/125/

Bill C-30, the biggest bullshii in the name of the children, and the police want you to pay for their warrentless wiretapping!

Quote:
The CACP adopted the position that law enforcement should not have to pay for the associated costs claming it "brings the administration of justice into disrepute." Instead, it proposed three alternatives:
  • the telecom companies and Internet providers could pass along the costs in the form of a "public safety tariff" that would apply on monthly consumer bills
  • the government could provide tax credits to telecom companies and Internet providers
  • the government could establish a federal funding pool to cover the costs
The government said no to these, but then where does the money come from? Perhaps they're just waiting till it passes to avoid backlash before they take the police's suggestions?

Please don't pass this bill.
