Petition to Withdraw Canada's Bill C-22

A petition calls on Canada's House of Commons to withdraw Bill C-22, which would require designated service providers to collect and retain metadata on all Canadians for up to one year without suspicion or investigation. The petitioners argue the bill poses serious privacy concerns under the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, creates cybersecurity vulnerabilities by potentially weakening encryption systems, and grants the Minister of Public Safety overly broad regulatory authority. The petition requests the withdrawal of the bill, removal of bulk metadata retention requirements, and explicit prohibition on any weakening of encryption in future legislation.
