Thank you so much to both witnesses.
Thank you, Mr. Chair.
We've, of course, seen the weaponizing of social media. Here in Canada online troll farms have been set up. There's been such a sowing of distrust and hate and online conspiracy theories. We've seen them potentially interfere in our elections, and certainly within general society.
The NDP have called on the government to convene a national working group to counter online hate and protect public safety. In what ways can we make social media platforms legally responsible for furthering that mistrust and that interference in elections and those online conspiracies, and for removing that extremism before it can cause real harm?
