Canadian Heritage  Mr. Speaker, we often hear it said that diversity is our strength. At least, that is what the Prime Minister often says. The irony with this is that Bill C-10 would actually attack diversity by narrowly defining what is constituted as Canadian content and therefore what will be d

Canadian Heritage  Mr. Speaker, this bill has everything to do with attacking Canadians and nothing to do with going after these web giants. Canadian content creators from minority groups are doing better than ever on platforms like YouTube. They are able to reach a global audience without any int

Canadian Heritage  Madam Speaker, the minister likes to use the word “expect” a whole lot in her answers, but what I have noticed is that the government refuses to hold them accountable. Let us move onto a different topic. The principle of net neutrality is that everyone's content online is treate

Canadian Heritage  Madam Speaker, the minister once again tries to mislead the House and the Canadian public. The bill would result in discrimination against some Canadians. It is clear the Liberals no longer advocate for net neutrality; they think discrimination is okay so long as the government i

Canadian Heritage  Madam Speaker, a well-read answer. I really wish the individual who just answered would stop trying to mislead Canadians. The Internet is an amazing tool that allows Canadian artists to explode in popularity around the world. With Bill C-10, the Liberals are attempting to build

Canadian Heritage  Wow, Mr. Speaker, I thought the Prime Minister was going to mansplain net neutrality there for a moment, but it looks like he does not even understand the definition because he could not define it. The Prime Minister tries to mislead Canadians by saying that Bill C-10 is against

Canadian Heritage  Mr. Speaker, that was embarrassing. There was a lot of um's and ah's and a few stumbles, yet the Prime Minister is not able to define Canadian content. He likes to talk about it a lot, though. Let us talk a little more about Canadian creators, shall we? Brian Wyllie from Calgary

Canadian Heritage  Mr. Speaker, in 2018, the current Liberal Minister of Justice said, “Our government supports an open Internet where Canadians have the power to communicate freely and have access to the legal content of their choice.” That seems like a good idea. Sadly, Bill C-10 does the exact

Canadian Heritage  Mr. Speaker, the Prime Minister insists on misleading the House and thereby the Canadian public. In 2017, however, the Prime Minister was committed to defending the concept of net neutrality, which is the principle that Internet users should have equal access to all sites, all c

Canadian Heritage  Mr. Speaker, basically what the minister is saying is, “Don't worry, folks, discrimination is okay, as long as it's approved by the government. I'll do it right.” No. The government cannot and should not be trusted to regulate what we access online. I am talking about successful

Canadian Heritage  Mr. Speaker, net neutrality is the principle that Internet users should have equal access to all sites, all content and all applications without being blocked or having preference given to certain sites over others. In 2017, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said he would defend net

Canadian Heritage  Mr. Speaker, the minister reads his speaking notes very well, but what he is saying is actually really misleading to the Canadian public and actually quite insulting to their intelligence. Net neutrality ensures that all Internet users are treated fairly. The Liberals once belie

Canadian Heritage  Madam Speaker, when it comes to content creation on YouTube, Canadians punch above their weight. Now, the government wants to step in and determine who gets to be noticed and who has to be hidden; who gets to succeed and, well, who gets to lose. If Bill C-10 had been in place w

Canadian Heritage  Madam Speaker, let me clarify: When the member says that the bill would make certain artists discoverable, what she means is that it would move some up in the queue and some down in the queue; it would pick winners and losers. It is sneaky, controlling and wrong. If this bill ha

Canadian Heritage  Mr. Speaker, experts are saying otherwise. Canadian culture should be determined by the Canadian people, not the government. To censor online content based on a narrow definition of “Canadianness” is an attack on the artists whom the Prime Minister claims he supports. However, m
