“I want the opposition to help pass this bill quickly. It holds big social media companies accountable to keep children safe online.”
“Mr. Speaker, I want to thank my colleague for speaking to Bill C-34. I always say crime is a non-partisan issue. My colleague and I sit together on the public safety committee and work together on so many bills that we passed last year. In June, we worked on Bill C-22 in committee, which is on lawful access, and complementary legislation to Bill C-34. It would provide law enforcement agencies with additional tools to help solve these criminal issues and keep our children safe online. With Bill C-34, our goal is to hold large social media companies accountable. Unfortunately, Bill C-22 was delayed by opposition members. My question is as follows: Will my colleague and members of the opposition party commit to supporting Bill C-34’s timely passage and ensuring that big tech companies will be kept accountable to keep our children safe?”
