It definitely sounds bad when you put it like that. From what I'm reading I don't know if it's that concerning.

  1. If I understand, it requires the authority of the minister of industry. So you really gotta be on Ottowa's radar.

  2. Federal Judicial review after the fact sounds like more transparent oversight than some board.

  3. Given the cybersecurity landscape, I think it makes perfect sense that the government would have the ability to cut off internet access to an individual or organization.
