WHEEEEEEEEE #SECU! Skipped the last one because it was pretty political, but Murray Smith is coming to this one, so here come the live-Tweets...
Zimmer opens the meeting by asking if there are hunting rifles on the prohib list. Justice officials clarify they cannot say if a gun is a hunting gun or not, just if it's prohib. Zimmer redirects the question then to Daly and Smith; witnesses appearing from the RCMP.
Chair @RonMcKinnonLib intercedes, saying that everyone should remember the list could change.

Interesting note to make.

Murray Smith now says the first rifle Zimmer asked about, the Benelli R1, is not included on Schedule 1 or 2.

Ok here we go!!! #LiveTweet thread 🧵 for #SECU meeting on #C21 🇨🇦

We’ve got a mix of anti gun lobby groups and community advocates.
@DanforthFSC begin. Price details the events of the #DanforthShooting - a tragic act of violence committed by a gang related criminal with a stolen gun. Supports #C21 but will focus on the handgun “freeze”. Says legal handguns contribute to violence.
Says their own experience (with stolen gun from gang ties) is evidence of that. Reports that traced guns are 2x more likely to come from Canada not US. Says the freeze is necessary. Is worried about the exemptions for elite sport shooters.

SECU begins with Brian McIlmoyle from AIC (Airsoft in Canada) $220M sport annually enjoyed by tens of thousands. Media and movie industry about $9B annually. Reliant on airsoft. Hollywood uses 60% less real guns. C21 destroys all this industry
Addresses LEO concerns, acknowledges risk. Suggests 18+ restriction on buying Airsoft. Will prevent majority of police calls, more in line with global experience. Suggests mandatory membership to Airsoft orgs. C21 also impacts paintball, etc

Vendredi, c'est #Codeco. On sait tous cela.

Mais puisque la rentrée (politique) verse dans le recyclage de vieux sujets (parfois éculés), eh bien, on va aussi recycler des (vieux) papiers. Mais pas éculés, eux.

Et donc, vendredi, c'est #recyclage. (1/6)
Les #syndicats s'engraissent et vivent sur le dos du chômage, auquel ils ont tout intérêt. (Oui, on caricature un brin, mais la petite musique est là.) #chomage (2/6)

Même topo pour les #mutualités (enfin, pas sur le chômage, hein, mais sur la santé, on se comprend). (3/6)

Si les grèves de 1995 laissent à beaucoup de militants un souvenir joyeux, celui d’une victoire contre le Plan Juppé, il faut dire pourquoi c’était en réalité une défaite pour le mouvement social. Éléments de discussion pour préparer une victoire en 2019 ! 💪

⬇️⬇️⬇️
Après son élection en mai 1995 sur le thème de la fracture sociale, Chirac nomme Juppé premier ministre et celui-ci défend le 15 novembre un plan sur la sécurité sociale en deux axes : réduction des salaires (retraites, allocation fam, etc.) et étatisation de l’institution.
C’est l’attaque faite au système des retraites – donc l’ambition de réduire la part des salaires dans la richesse nationale – qui coalise des colères antérieures. Lancée le 5 décembre, la mobilisation est splendide et à la suite de la journée du 12 décembre Juppé recule.

Le déficit de la #SECU devrait replonger en 2019, le retour à l’équilibre "remis en cause" selon la Commission des comptes via @francebleu francebleu.fr/infos/economie…

la réaction de la CFTC à dérouler ⬇️⬇️⬇️ #thread
En + d’un contexte économique moins favorable que prévu, les mesures de la loi #MUES ont eu d’indéniables conséquences sur les recettes des régimes de Sécurité sociale.
Il ne s’agit pas de remettre en cause ces décisions que nous avons soutenues en raison de leur effet immédiat sur le pouvoir d’achat, et de la demande qu’elles entendaient satisfaire. Nous devons cependant nous interroger sur leurs impactes sur les finances sociales.

1) Le prétendu trou de la Sécurité sociale, ce sont les patrons qui le creusent, par le chômage et les bas salaires. Explication.

(Lutte de classe n°138 - septembre-octobre 2011) #archiveLO #secu
2) Depuis 30 ans, parce qu'ils ne trouvent plus dans le développement de la production de quoi faire suffisamment progresser ou même maintenir leurs profits, les patrons, grands et petits, ont considérablement aggravé l'exploitation des travailleurs. Ils le font directement...
3) .. dans les entreprises, par les licenciements, la multiplication des contrats précaires, l'écrasement des salaires et l'aggravation des conditions de travail. Mais cette aggravation de l'exploitation résulte aussi, indirectement, de la mainmise du grand patronat, de la...

10 minutes late to #SECU and it's moving fast. Catching up. For those following, clause 109 of #c59 #cdnpoli
Conservative motion, similar to with #CSE, asking #CSIS to report annually on the costs incurred due to oversight. Both #NDP & #Liberals argue that this creates a new administrative burden. #NDP argues could be used to try & undermine new review & oversight bodies
Motion fails

Good morning from the Public Safety Committee study of Bill #C59. Four hour marathon meeting. We'll see how much of the 90 pages or so left MPs get through today. #cdnpoli #hw #SECU
Conservative motion to remove the requirement that the Minister of National Defence must consult with the Minister of Foreign Affairs when the #CSE engages in active (offensive) cyber operations. Conservatives argue that this will hinder ability of Minister of Defence to act #C59
Motion is defeated.

Back at #SECU for the next round of votes on Bill #C59, in time to see the #NDP motion to give the Intelligence Commissioner powers to go beyond simply saying "yes" or "no" on authorizations be voted down. #cdnpoli
Next Liberal motion, also proposed by Greens, is to ask the #IC to publish decisions not only when rejecting an authorization, but also in approving it (something @ICLMG is in favour of). Passes.
NDP motion that would allow IC to ask for additional information, rather than saying "yes" or "no" to an authorization. Notes that the current #CSE commissioner suggested this amendment #C59 #secu
