Thank you very much, Madam Chair.
I find it very interesting that we are talking about digital literacy. Ms. Wood, you mentioned earlier that governments have a duty to legislate and regulate this, because it is not up to parents to do all the policing. However, even though Ms. Hill is still optimistic and says it is not too late, I feel that we have delayed too long, as we usually do when it comes to regulating new technologies. Some go so far as to say that we may have missed the boat with the current generation.
Many say that we should follow the example of Australia, Finland and Denmark and restrict access to social media for young people under the age of 18, 16 or 14, depending on the case. Shouldn't we instead step up our game in terms of education and digital literacy, and implement programs to ensure that young people are more cautious and informed?
It seems to me that prohibition is not always the right solution. It may be, and that is why we are studying the issue, but I wonder if we should not become more aware and follow the example of countries that have focused on education instead. Even if we are behind, we could redouble efforts and move in that direction.
I would like to hear your opinion on this, Ms. Wood. The data presented to us today is concerning. I also heard your response to Ms. Holland's comments earlier, so I will give you the floor.
