Thank you, Madam Chair.
Mr. Vaillancourt, Mr. Ganson and Mr. Dupuis‑Déri, thank you for your enlightening expertise. Your testimony is deeply troubling. This subject is one we're passionate about.
Mr. Dupuis‑Déri, I'll start with you.
At the very start of the study, we heard from Jake Stika from the organization Next Gen Men. He introduced us to something quite interesting from a behavioural standpoint. He invited us to take a trip back in time. He had us focus on the population of young men. In the past, these young men were sometimes receptacles for various discourses, different hypothetically antifeminist messages.
Today, it may seem counterintuitive, but we are apparently able to reach and penetrate this population through digital spaces, but it's in the physical space where increasingly violent actions are being expressed. It's as though the digital sphere somehow manages to normalize behaviours that then manifest in the physical world.
What can you tell us about that migration, that shift from a more passive role to a very active one?
