Editing Canadian Bill S-209 (section)

==Charter of Rights Violations==
In a Youtube video<ref name=":1">{{Cite web |last=Fraser |first=David |title=The really bad age verification bill is back in Canada's Parliament |url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cBJe3gB2Po4}}</ref> by a Canadian privacy lawyer David Fraser, he outlines two Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms violations of this bill, the right to lawful access of information and to anonymity. The specific amendments in the charter are as follows: 

Right to access lawful content:

- '''Section 2(b) - Right to Freedom of Expression'''<ref name=":2">{{Cite web |title=Section 2(b) – Freedom of expression |url=https://www.justice.gc.ca/eng/csj-sjc/rfc-dlc/ccrf-ccdl/check/art2b.html}}</ref>. Courts have interpreted this to include the right to receive and access content, even if it's controversial (like pornography), as long as it's legal under Canadian law.

- '''Section 7 - Life, Liberty and Security of the Person'''<ref>{{Cite web |title=Section 7 – Life, liberty and security of the person |url=https://www.justice.gc.ca/eng/csj-sjc/rfc-dlc/ccrf-ccdl/check/art7.html}}</ref>. “Liberty” has been interpreted to include personal autonomy, which could arguably include the freedom to make personal decisions about consuming legal adult content.

Right to anonymity: 

- '''Section 2(b) - Right to Freedom of Expression'''<ref name=":2" />. The right to express oneself, including the right to receive and share information, possibly anonymously. Courts have recognized that anonymity can be an essential part of expression, especially online or when expressing controversial views. In some cases, courts have allowed individuals to use pseudonyms in court filings or remain anonymous to protect their freedom of expression<ref>{{Cite web |last=Naudie |first=Christopher |date=2017-06-08 |title=Calling John Doe: Can a class action proceed with an anonymous representative plaintiff? |url=https://www.osler.com/en/insights/blogs/classactions/calling-john-doe-can-a-class-action-proceed-with/}}</ref>.

- '''Section 8 - Search and Seizure'''<ref>{{Cite web |title=Section 8 - Search and Seizure |url=https://www.justice.gc.ca/eng/csj-sjc/rfc-dlc/ccrf-ccdl/check/art8.html}}</ref>. Asserts a reasonable expectation of privacy, including digital privacy - like IP addresses, search histories, or online identities. This section has been the main Charter basis for protecting anonymity online. In R. v. Spencer (2014)<ref>{{Cite web |date=2014-06-13 |title=R. v. Spencer, 2014 SCC 43 (CanLII), [2014] 2 SCR 212 |url=https://www.canlii.org/en/ca/scc/doc/2014/2014scc43/2014scc43.html}}</ref>, the Supreme Court ruled that Canadians have a reasonable expectation of privacy in their internet activity, including who is behind an IP address. That means police need a warrant to obtain subscriber info from ISPs.
