I know that education is a provincial issue, but protecting children is a national issue. That's the way I look at it. While I understand that provincial governments are the ones that put education in place, the federal government should be working with all levels in all provinces across the country to make sure that prevention education is nationwide.
In terms of devices, I understand that children want to be on Snapchat because other kids are. They want to be in the group chat. They want to post photos. I understand that. I understand that you, as the federal government, can't go into a home and tell a child not to be on Snapchat, but you can look at the regulations and the security and parent controls around those apps that are taking away our children.
Legislatively, I believe someone else pointed out that there are so many professionals—Jonathan Haidt is an example—who are out there and saying exactly what we need to do. To look at that from a legislative perspective, look at the research. Talk to the researchers. Put together a committee like this one that can do a deep dive into what sorts of policy and legislation are required to make that happen.
