We think the threshold of “undermines the security of Canada” leaves it open for a huge amount of interpretation. I know that there's a lot of talk about how things like protests and activism are excluded, but when you look at things.... In B.C., we're looking at pipeline protests, and that's the economic security of Canada. Does that count? If that threatens the idea of the security of Canada, whose interpretation is that? I think we're seeing a lot of people who are feeling quite silenced by this provision and think that the provision is not accurately worded in a way that protects us or our privacy.
