The man who has locked his entire country away from the world for a year citing coronavirus now wants to have an internet that rivals China.
Justin Trudeau is now pushing Bill C-10, a law that would see Canadians subjected to the most regulated internet in the free world.
According to the Vancouver Sun, the law is being pitched as a way to expand Canadian content provisions to the online sphere, however, since the law got into committee its rules have been expanded.
For example, one rule would allow the federal government to order the deletion of any Facebook, YouTube, Instagram or Twitter upload made by a Canadian.
To be fair to Trudeau, other Canadian politicians are loving the idea of internet censorship. NDP leader Jagmeet Singh indicated his party was open to providing the votes needed to pass C-10, seeing the bill as a means to combat online hate. While that is true, it could also be used to shut down anyone who is remotely critical of the government.
