Description
TL;DR: A Canadian civil-liberties organization argues that central bank digital currency could create unacceptable surveillance and control risks.
About This Document
The Justice Centre for Constitutional Freedoms reviews CBDC concepts, international experiments, the Bank of Canada's research, cashless-payment trends, security risks, programmability, and public opinion. The report assembles those topics into a rights-centered case against adoption rather than a neutral central-bank cost-benefit assessment.
Why Bitcoin People May Care
CBDC debates often hinge on institutional design choices hidden behind the broad label digital money. This report documents one advocacy position and its supporting references. It is not an official Bank of Canada report, an adopted policy, or a balanced statement of every technical option. Legal and policy claims reflect the organization's 2025 analysis, not current advice.
