Episode 236: Robert Diab on the Return of Lawful Access
Lawful access is back. Bill C-2, the government’s border bill, includes a fairly comprehensive set of lawful access rules, including a new information demand power that would result in warrantless disclosure of information about a subscriber, a new international production order, and requirements for providers to assist law enforcement in working with their networks. There will no doubt be multiple podcast episodes devoted to this bill in the coming months. To get started, Robert Diab, a law professor at Thompson Rivers University and the co-author of a recent text on Search and Seizure joins the Law Bytes podcast to discuss the historical context of lawful access and the key provisions in this bill.
