    This is great news for Canadians, meaning they’ll be free from dragnet surveilance, as the five eyes monitoring system relies on other countries to spy on their citizens for them as a legal loophole.

    Way to go trump, keep going, dismantle the five eyes entirely.

      Huh? The other 4 can still spy on Canadians. They just won’t share the info with Canada.

          They can and will be prosecuted through legal means. As for illegal means, if it’s a big enough deal you can bet the other 4 countries will accidentally leak the info.

    First, US wanted UK out of five eyes. Now Canada. Pretty soon, it’ll be one eye.

    The US should be axed from the alliance at this point, honestly. No intel shared with us can be trusted to be secret, even to our ‘enemies’.
