Perhaps we are talking apples and oranges here. I wasn't originally speaking about dedicated internet cafes, but the free services offered by coffee shops, drugstores, department stores and even banks. I am pretty sure most dedicated internet cafes have closed here as well, not by the government, just too many free options.

I am probably being very inept in stating my opinion.

If the Canadian party in power seriously interfered with a taken for granted service in a way that impacted a serious number of residents than they would no longer be the party in power. If they arbitrarily chose to impact me, I can deal with it, but I doubt that will happen. I don't do anything illegal or immoral internet-wise AFAIK, and if I did choose to start I am pretty sure they would be hard pressed to catch me.

Still I will be watching the bill with interest to see if it passes and what they (politicians, law enforcement) will do when and if it does.

Kind of like that old joke of a dog chasing a car and not knowing what to do when it catches it.
