    Two things can both be true without one being caused by the other.

    1. Current laws work
    2. The Liberals are trying to enact laws that excessively curtail privacy, similar to those in the UK

    This doesn’t mean that 2 is caused by 1 or that they have anything to do with each other at all. Not everything has to play into some grand conspiracy. If anything, this case severely undermines the Liberals’ position.
