So what @cforcese and I feared would happen has happened. @SenateCA #secd has indefinitely postponed hearings into C-71 to deal with the SNC-Lavilin fallout. This means the chances of C-59 passing are very bad.

This is a disaster. #cdnnatsec

@cforcese @SenateCA It is actually hard to describe how bad this is for Canadian national security. But if this is true, let's start with the human face of this. The @NoFlyListKids will continue to face years of travel harassment at the border for no other reason than having the wrong name.
Then there are the many, many, lawsuits that were put on hold against the government regarding C-51. These will be activated again.
A judge ruled CSIS' data retention regime to be illegal. This means that for the foreseeable future, CSIS will be forced to either not retain data that is potentially pertinent to national security investigations or to do so on illegal grounds. This is NOT what the Service wants
In an age of growing cyber threats, the CSE will not have full power to protect Canada from cyber attacks by states or entities that seek to do damage, or steal information.
The failure to pass C-59 into law will be, in my view, the biggest Liberal campaign promise break. There is no excuse for #SECD to delay this legislation further for the purpose of chasing political rabbits down holes.

@SenateCA - you are utterly failing Canadians here.
