Information & Ethics committee I would add in here, to echo John's comments, that it is very challenging. I would say, though, that Australia has done some very impressive work in this space. Also, as was mentioned by Daniel, the U.K. government has really taken a leadership role with its “Online Harms White P

Information & Ethics committee I'll start, and then I'm sure Lloyd will jump in. It's very difficult to answer that question. The reason it is difficult is that we see so many problems right through the continuum of where action would be taken. Whether it's on the enforcement side, wherever it is, we are quit

Lianna McDonald
Information & Ethics committee Yes, what ended up happening, we didn't realize at the time, when the organization.... The international association you're talking about is INHOPE. The organization had taken a donation from a company called MindGeek. At the time, we did not understand the business structure and

Lianna McDonald
Information & Ethics committee May I just add something, please? From our organization's perspective, we've been screaming from the rooftops that we are long overdue for regulation. I think it's incumbent upon us all to ask ourselves how we got here. We as an organization also look at the unregulated nature

Lianna McDonald
Information & Ethics committee Thank you very much. I'm going to turn this over to Lloyd Richardson, our director of technology, in one second. The point I want to make before he gives those concrete examples is that we took that review on when we were examining the now signed-on voluntary principles to addre
February 22nd, 2021Committee meeting
Lianna McDonald
Information & Ethics committee There's one last point I want to make. It's really important also, when we look at all the reports, and even the information and the data that organizations such as ours or NCMEC have, that we only come across what we know. What we know—and we all understand this—is that for a

Justice committee It's very important. Essentially, the types of reports we would see would involve not only animals but also the abuse of children. We very much rely on the public to come forward. Through the tip line, we do receive those. The second very important thing, though, is that we see

Justice committee Just to add to that, as we've spoken to, in regard to the vast majority, we know that we're missing a whole group of scenarios where there are sexual assaults being committed. We did not have the clarity, as Monique has accurately clarified, in terms of taking action, so this is

Lianna McDonald
Health committee Yes, and just to echo your point, it is very difficult to manage that. These are my final two points. One, we'd be happy to put that together. I have a brilliant team who can help pull some information, and we would submit it to the committee for review. We have to have a starti
