Helena Konanz Conservative
“I have concerns with this bill. It is not currently possible to verify people's ages safely, as Australia's experience shows. We also cannot make big tech companies keep their promises to delete stored data.”
“Madam Speaker, this is a very important subject. The member across the way mentioned that there would be highly secure age verification. How would this be done? It is not actually possible right now, as we can see with what has happened in Australia with its policies. He also mentioned that the big tech companies would promise to erase the data they store. How is that possible to regulate? He can understand why we have concerns with the bill.”
