PETITION: No to mandatory contact tracing and government surveillance for the coronavirus in Canada
***ALSO DON’T PARTICIPATE IN CONTACT TRACING AT ALL****
SIGN PETITION: No to mandatory contact tracing and government surveillance for the coronavirus in Canada

We, the undersigned, call on you to reject mandatory contact tracing and government surveillance, especially using smartphone and other new technologies to keep records on people’s movements and personal contacts
