Canada considering dangerous immigration and surveillance bill

Canada is considering a cruel and dangerous immigration and surveillance bill.

The immigration part would permit officials to cancel visas arbitrarily and ban arbitrarily any pathway for people to reach Canada to ask for admission. No appeal is allowed.

Furthermore, people arriving across the border where there is no crossing point would have just two weeks to apply for asylum. What does such harshness serve/

The immigration minister has admitted that all this is a surrender to pressure from the bully.

The surveillance part would make it easier for cops and prosecutors to get access to people's communication metadata without a warrant. It includes an almost unlimited exceptions for emergencies; perhaps it would be acceptable if it stated more concrete limits, or if it prohibited the state from retaining such surveillance data more than 2 weeks if it has not by then obtained a warrant covering that same data.
