I can appreciate the position that Facebook is in, with 2.2 billion users and billions of pieces of information moving on a daily basis, and I agree with that. But this was not low quality, and this affects our troops who are deployed around the world. I don't think it was done to monetize. I think it was done to spread misinformation and cause harm.
I think you're talking about two different levels. The low quality is monetization—that's fine—but there's a higher quality when you're talking about troops or other entities who are serving in different parts of the world.
I can appreciate your position because of the amount of information that's moving, but still that information has to be removed, because lives are on the line. What assurances can you give, not only to this committee but to Canadians, that troops are being protected around the world from this disinformation?
