It wouldn't have been my most serious excess in the bill.
My most serious excess is the provision that would allow a judge with respect to lawful interruption to set aside the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. That is a principle which I think is overdone. It's excessive, it's unconstructive, and it violates a core Canadian value. Were there an amendment on that, it would be constructive. If there were not an amendment on that, I think the courts would strike it down very soon under any circumstance.
The notion that we would give any judge the ability to, in a less than public context, set aside the Charter of Rights and Freedoms to facilitate a security agency being involved in lawful disruption strikes me as a core contradiction and deeply problematic.
