Life imprisonment if the government doesn't like what you say
Ability for the gov to ban you off the internet
Ability for the gov to federally ban access to websites they don't like
Ability for the post office to open your mail
Ability for the RCMP to enter your home without a warrant
You don't get a lawyer
Ability for the government to remotely access your devices without a warrant
I'm as left as they come, but I also recognize that the government changes. The powers the current government assumes will be transferred in whole to other parties.
