Conservatives:
Similarly, the Conservatives make a renewed commitment to grant extensive new powers to police, in the digital realm.There is no specific reference to it in the party platform but included within a promise to pass 12 criminal justice bills within the first 100 days of Parliament are at least two of the bills that would facilitate police access to digital information.

Good God.. they have enough spy powers already... how about lowering our mobile/internet usage costs.. highest in developed world ... a laughing stock compared to places like HK.. in both quality and price.

ooooops... That's the NDP platform...The NDP is the most aggressive of the three parties on the hot-button issue of Internet pricing, with a commitment to a full ban on usage-based billing practices at both the wholesale and retail levels. When combined with a promise to roll back the 2006 directive to the CRTC to rely on market forces, the NDP would reverse long-standing approaches to telecom and Internet regulation

and the Liberals.. ... well too limp compared to NDP

BUT... latest poll makes me think Conservative landslide possible.. with NDP rising and vote splitting... Libs losing to both NDP and Conservatives as is Bloc...
