Earlier this month Toews introduced a bill called C-30 which is also known as the Protecting Children from Internet Predators Act. Now don’t get me wrong, the majority of Canadians (including myself) are all for supporting methods to help keep our children safe, the real issue we have with this bill is that it would also potentially violate human privacy rights for innocent Canadian citizens on so many levels which is not something to take lightly.

It’s a classic case of our government toying with people’s morals and emotions in order to take away human rights and further control society. On the surface bill C-30 sounds like a good thing but the harsh reality is it will give the government illegal access to track and monitor each and every second you spend online without warrant or justification. Who’s to say or guarantee if this bill is passed that it will only be used for the sole purpose of what it’s claimed to be intended for?

Check out our YouTube video of the day below which is a clip from the Rick Mercer Report. Not only is Rick Mercer one of the funniest comedians that Canada has ever produced, he is also extremely intelligent when it comes to Canadian politics and well known for his political views.

It gets worse, not only would bill C-30 be invasive towards innocent law-abiding Canadian citizens, it could very well be yet another unnecessary money grab. Think about it, many of us Canadians are already suffering from immense amounts of debt and penny pinching as it is and if Internet Service Providers nationwide are forced to install billions of dollars worth of illegal spying technology who do you think will have to pay the bill? Call me crazy but I highly doubt it will come out of Vic Toews’s pocket.

How You Can Help Prevent Bill C-30 From Being Passed

If you’re a fellow Canadian who is appalled by this bill there are ways to fight back and stand up for your human rights. You can sign an online petition against bill C-30 and you can also make a donation to help keep your privacy and personal information “PRIVATE” as it should be.

Leave it to the Onion News Network to come up with a video like this. If you didn’t know any better you’d probably believe it was true. In the same breath, is it really that much of a stretch for something like this to be the case? Sometimes the best humor is the type that could also have a trace of truth. For example, while employment rates plummeted it’s in fact very true that Farmville addiction increased. Coincidence or not?

His name is Phil Davison and he wants your vote! He makes that clear at least once or twice in the video. Perhaps he’s just a really passionate guy, or maybe he just had a few too many Rockstar energy drinks before his speech.

Whatever the case if you haven’t heard of this guy before you’ll probably remember him after watching this. Too much caffeine or a well planned political tactic? You be the judge and feel free to share your comments below.

As far as the unemployment rate, well it will be interesting to see how he handles that. Let’s just hope it gets better before it gets worse. Far too many people continue to lose their jobs in the U.S. due to stupidity, greed and poor planning.
