Replying to Kevin Lamoureux (Liberal)
“Mr. Speaker, the presentation of Bill C-34 and the establishment of things such as the safety commission clearly demonstrates that there is political will. I believe that political will is on all sides of the House in anticipation that we will see necessary legislation to protect our children. The member makes a good example with the number of files she raised. The question I have for the member is related to the importance of recognizing, and she made reference to the safety commission, that the safety commission has the capability to address directly some of the issues that she raised as concerns for our young people. I agree, there needs to be accountability, and I look forward to the legislation ultimately going to committee. I would like to hear her thoughts on that.”

Mr. Speaker, Positioning · 21 wordsI spent the summer speaking with Canadians from coast to coast with regards to this legislation and the concerns they carry.Positioning Claims · 40 wordsOne of them, with regard to the safety commission, is the fact that there is this bureaucratic body that will be set up in order to determine the regulations that will guide our way forward concerning safety online for children.1 Procedure · 6 wordsHowever, it is more than that.Procedure Claims · 72 wordsThis commission is meant to exist with a minimum of five people but, according to the legislation, it can exist with as few as one person.2 One individual could have the ability to carry out all of the power that is vested in the commission. There are legal experts who have brought to our attention that this power is vested in no other body in any other democratic country in the world.3 The ask · 4 wordsThat deserves careful consideration.
