Sounds like a great way to keep wages down and prices up.

Nobody hoovers up more data than the US.
The US can't even unlock an iPhone without calling in 3rd parties. EVERY Chinese made device collects data, and every Chinese business gives full access to the Chinese government. The US government does collect data but it's no where near the scale of the Chinese.
Remember when Elon remotely unlocked that cybertruck recently and accessed the cameras?
He unlocked a device made by a company he owns, running software they designed on a network they operate. All that shows is that Tesla's vehicles are not properly secured and remote access can be abused by Tesla employees.
I'm talking about Canada and not about a war.
During peace times it is not in Canada's interest for China to know where all our politicians are, it is not in Canada's interest for China to know where where Canadian military and law enforcement are. It's not in Canada's interest for any entity to be able to tell where specific people or groups of people are at any time.
De-spying should not only apply to Chinese cars but all cars and mobile devices.
Correlation attacks, China is king of hoovering up data.
Overly dramatic example: you are in the armed forces, you have a TikTok account, you post a bunch of shit that shows you are in the armed forces. You get deployed for some covert fuckabout and are told to leave your phone at home. You turn off your phone, pick up 3 of your buddies in your Chinese EV and drive to the base/airport/sea port. Dozens of people do this and by seeing the pattern China knows that a bunch of armed forces are being told to quietly deploy.
A less dramatic example might be figuring out where politicians are by knowing where their employees are.

The title got me. The Beaverton has had a hard time making up news that is more ridiculous than reality.
If they keep the tax in effect until AC season the americans will turn it off themselves.
Yes, people could still access them via VPN,
Have you met people? Most people use the default wifi password on their router.
Nice! Breaking even should be the highest goal for a Crown corp, turning a profit means you are delivering less of a service than you could.
It’s a natural monopoly and should be nationalized into Crown corporations.
So it can be destroyed like Canada post? Power, energy and telcos should be government owned and operated like the military. They are essential and their primary purpose should be to provide a service NOT turn a profit.
What about TikTok, Facebook or Reddit? One is operated by an adversarial government, one harbors and aids scammers to steal millions, and Reddit is 4chan light.
Banning platforms is not the answer, it opens the door to banning as an easy solution to any issue.
