I don't think that part 1 can proceed. Fundamentally, for me, I am being asked as a legislator to abdicate my power to an unelected regulator to regulate speech in very broad terms. What do you think about that?
I fundamentally think that's wrong, and I think it's lazy on the part of the government, as opposed to actually putting forward legislation—which Conservatives have done, with Bill C-412—as a starting point that could define what online platforms are, as opposed to just porting that responsibility, with potential impingements on civil liberties, to an unelected regulator.
