Vic Toews, the Canadian Tory MP pushing for the new spying bill says that people who oppose him are "
standing with child pornographers." Mr Toews's bill will require ISPs to record all your online activity and give police access to those logs without a warrant. Ontario police
recently busted a huge child-porn ring without needing any further spying power. In fact, no one can find any police investigation that has failed for lack of snooping powers. A leaked memo from the Canadian Association of Chiefs of Police shows that Canada's law enforcement has been
scouring its records for evidence supporting the need for this bill, without luck.

Thanks, Wild Rumpus!)
