Adjournment Proceedings

In an adjournment debate, Elizabeth May of the Green Party raised concerns about artificial intelligence harming young people’s mental health, referencing the killings in Tumbler Ridge, and asked when stronger protections would come. Liberal parliamentary secretary Taleeb Noormohamed replied that the government is acting to protect children online, citing bills on privacy and online harms, $200 million in AI safety research, and cooperation with police and AI companies. May said she supports the intent of the legislation but considers it too weak, arguing AI companies cannot be trusted and penalties should threaten their profits and hold directors personally accountable. Noormohamed responded that the new digital safety regulator could fine large tech companies up to 3% of their revenue, which he said would push them to protect Canadians.Written by AI from the debate.
