Organized crime is using encrypted messaging apps to enlist youth. This spells trouble for police

Organized crime groups are increasingly using encrypted messaging apps to recruit young individuals, making it harder for police to track and prevent criminal activities. Despite some arrests following recent gun-for-hire plots targeting the U.S. Consulate in Toronto, investigators are struggling without the controversial surveillance tools proposed in Bill C-22. This situation underscores the growing challenge law enforcement faces in combating organized crime, especially as criminals leverage technology to evade detection.
