The Justice Centre’s latest report, The Safe Social Media Act: A threat to our privacy and freedom of expression, explains how Bill C-34 would force identity screening of all Canadians using social media, mandate monitoring of private AI conversations, and create a powerful new regulator with vast powers to censor speech.
Bill C-34 unjustifiably limits Charter rights to privacy, free expression, and parental authority. Targeted age-verification for dedicated pornography websites is a reasonable measure. An under-16 social media ban that requires verifying every user is not.
Evidence from Australia shows that even after implementing such a ban, most under-16s still have social media accounts, while parental awareness of their children’s use declined in some cases. The result is greater privacy risks to everyone through expanded data collection and identity screening, without achieving the stated goal of keeping children off these platforms.
The most serious online harms against children and non-consensual intimate images are already prohibited under the Criminal Code. Better enforcement of existing laws is the right path, not population-wide surveillance and a new censor.

@marinakyritsis@Monica_Dagny Cause trump has nothing to do with this country, everything has been self inflicted. Tell me what trump has done other than the tariffs, cause guess what we have protected industries in Canada too.
@Fil_Cortese@Monica_Dagny GDP growth per capita is the lowest in the G7, our problems started in 2015 when we had a nepo baby elected after he said “the budget will balance itself” like how economic stupid do you have to be. Country full of clowns,I have to endure.
@RyanM500010@AntonioTweets2 Canadian provinces have bigger trade restrictions between provinces than what the states did to us, don’t forget the protections we put on Canadian industries to keep competitive out.
