Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
A number of years ago, I was very proud to subscribe to Facebook and I was always “liking” and “sharing”. But today, in the light of what is happening, I am constantly wondering what I can post. I hope that you are going to be able to give Canadians back some trust in the network, not only through what you are doing now but above all through what you will be doing in the future.
As the mother of three children who use Facebook, I think about what awaits them in the future. I also think of my parents, who could well become vulnerable because they like everything on Facebook. I really want you to understand that, in both our professional and personal lives, we now have a filter in our heads that we have to use every day when we use Facebook.
I still maintain that Facebook is an incredible networking tool that allows me to stay in touch with my acquaintances and my family and to be up to date with everything that is going on. You can understand a little how my doubts and my lack of trust are affecting me. It is important for me to tell you this, because I feel that everyone is feeling the same way, not only in my constituency, but all over the country.
Now I would like to discuss those who create apps. We talked about them a little earlier and I would like you to explain the policy on those developers you referred to. How many of them does the policy apply to and how many violations have you had in the past? Also, what did you do about the violators?
