On Thursday, February 20th at 5pm PST/8pm EST, we will be hosting a social media town hall featuring BCCLA Executive Director Josh Paterson, and Open Media.ca Executive Director Steve Anderson.
We’ll be hosting an online conversation about our Stop Illegal Spying case, and spying and privacy more broadly. We’re happy to take your questions.
Ways to Connect with Us:

We’ll be putting the following questions to our hosts, but we invite you to add yours as well!
1. What is the court case about?
2. Do we have any evidence that the government has been scooping up our private information?
3. Why should Canadians be concerned about warrantless online spying?
4. The case has been filed. What now?
5. What can Canadians do to ensure their right to privacy is respected and protected?
