Bienvenu-Olivier Ntumba Liberal
“This bill creates an independent commission to watch online companies and punish those that break the rules. The government will not be able to interfere with its decisions.”
“Mr. Speaker, I thank my colleague for his great question. The commission bolsters the credibility of this bill or the future act. It will prevent any interference from the Government of Canada when it comes to decisions related to the applicability of the bill. The commission will have free rein to monitor these digital companies and take action if they fail to comply with the provisions set out in this bill. As I said earlier, non-compliant companies will be subject to the measures set out in this bill’s accountability framework.”
