Refine by MP, party, committee, province, or result type.
Canadian Heritage committee I think that's up to legislators to determine.

Canadian Heritage committee I'm sorry. I have to make sure that my colleague gets some time here. I'll switch it over to Kevin.

Canadian Heritage committee Ms. Selby, I'm going to come back to you for a moment. With regard to where we left off in terms of platforms, are there legislative changes that could be made in order to better protect children on platforms?
June 11th, 2024Committee meeting
Rachael ThomasConservative
Canadian Heritage committee You have also stated, with regard to this bill, that “Technology-facilitated violence that Canadians have been increasingly experiencing does not impact everyone in the same way and at the same rates”. You're tapping into this idea that there is technology-facilitated violence. How could that be better addressed through legislation?
June 11th, 2024Committee meeting
Rachael ThomasConservative
Canadian Heritage committee Okay. Thank you. I take your point, for sure. My next question is for Dr. Selby. Can you talk a little bit about platforms—you touched on this a little bit in your opening remarks—in terms of strategies around how platforms function and the vulnerabilities that are created for children online?

Canadian Heritage committee What mechanisms could be put in place?
June 11th, 2024Committee meeting
Rachael ThomasConservative
Canadian Heritage committee Thank you. Thank you to all of the witnesses for your patience today. My first question goes to Ms. Lalonde. In an article that you recently wrote with regard to Bill C-63, you said it “contains...glaring gaps that risk leaving women and girls in Canada unfairly exposed.” I'm wondering if you can expand on those gaps that you see within the legislation that would perhaps leave women and children vulnerable.

Canadian Heritage committee Thank you. There certainly is a need to be survivor-centric. I guess I'm further concerned, though, with regard to this legislation. To your point, it sets up a digital safety commission and a digital safety ombudsman, which essentially allows individuals to issue or file a complaint or a concern with these folks.

Rachael ThomasConservative
Canadian Heritage committee In your estimation, should there be an expansion of the Criminal Code to include intimate deepfakes or the abuse that transpires based on those?
June 11th, 2024Committee meeting
Rachael ThomasConservative
Canadian Heritage committee I officially move a motion that we sit until 7 p.m. It's a non-dilatory motion, so it needs to go to a vote.

Canadian Heritage committee I have a point of order.

Canadian Heritage committee I'm sorry, no; you just robbed her of her last 30 seconds. Please give that back to the witness.
June 11th, 2024Committee meeting
Rachael ThomasConservative
Canadian Heritage committee No, it's 30 seconds, because you continuously interrupted her.
