Canadian Heritage committee  I would agree that potentially more could be done than what Bill C-63 presents. I do note, at least, that there is the inclusion of the word “deepfake” in the legislation. If anything, I think it's a good step forward in trying to tackle and get up to date with the definitions that are being used.

Canadian Heritage committee  I would echo your concerns. I presume there's an issue with the international element that the Internet and deepfakes present. You could have a perpetrator who is in Russia or some small town in a country we don't have much familiarity with. It would be hard to potentially go after those perpetrators.

Canadian Heritage committee  Do you mind repeating the last part of the question?

Canadian Heritage committee  Yes, I'll conclude there.

Canadian Heritage committee  Madam Chair, committee members, thank you for the opportunity to speak before you this afternoon. By way of brief background, my name is Keita Szemok-Uto. I'm from Vancouver. I was just called to the bar last month. I've been practising, primarily in family law, with also a mix of privacy and workplace law.
