The proposed legislation requires platforms to restrict child exploitation and other harmful content.
The Canadian government has proposed a bill that would ban social media for children under the age of 16, with potential exemptions for platforms that demonstrate “sufficient safeguards.”
Ottawa unveiled the proposed legislation, dubbed the Safe Social Media Act, in a press release on Wednesday.
If passed, social media platforms would be required to implement age verification and reduce children’s exposure to harmful content, including child sexual exploitation, non-consensual intimate imagery, self-harm promotion, bullying, hate, violence, and terrorist or extremist material.
The bill would also regulate AI chatbots, requiring them to “mitigate the risk” of harmful outputs, and require better reporting from platforms in crisis situations, such as when users communicate intent to harm themselves or others.
A new digital safety regulator would be established to oversee and enforce the rules.
“We have seen the very serious consequences that online harms can have. As technologies evolve, we must ensure our laws keep pace, because parents cannot face these challenges alone,” Canadian Culture Minister Marc Miller said in the government press release.
The bill comes amid growing international efforts to regulate children’s online activity.
Late last year, Australia became the first nation to ban children under 16 from accessing major social media platforms, including Facebook, Instagram, TikTok and YouTube. Brazil and Indonesia introduced their own restrictions in May.
France has advanced legislation to bar children under 15 from social media, though the measure has yet to complete the legislative process. Other countries, including the UK, Austria and Denmark, are also developing similar restrictions.
Social media giants such as Meta Platforms, TikTok, and YouTube have come under growing scrutiny in recent months, including in a landmark product liability trial in Los Angeles over allegations that they deliberately designed their platforms to be addictive for children.
Court filings have also alleged that Meta’s Facebook failed to adequately police accounts involved in the sexual exploitation and trafficking of minors, with some illicit content reportedly remaining online until after 16 violations had been recorded.
Quelle surprise!
Stop these socialist sociopaths from implementing their digital ID agenda! This is our last fight people. Make it stop now! Fight!

Ha ha ha.
Another ‘liberal democracy’ running an under 16 social media ban as a pretext for digital ID.
Our evil corrupt pedo-globalist puppet-politician rulers are attempting another sinister lockstep operation.
Well guess what, I won’t be complying. I’ll simply shut down all my social media accounts.
#F*ck em.
The intention here is to issue every single person with a digital ID. You will not be able to access the internet without a digital identity.
Why must my dishwasher, fridge and car be connected to the internet? Why must my TV have a forward facing camera to watch me?
Social control.
The unelected world government has decided you must be recorded and be watched. To measure your consumption. To rootout those people who are not aligned with world government rules.
Digital id and listening to what you say is already active. Ever recall talking about something and magically seeing that very product on your phone or news feed? You already have digital Id.
Ever wonder why people like Chris Hipkins wasn’t investigated for knowing the vaccine was deadly to young people yet he still wants to hunt down the unvaccinated and jab them? Why whistle blowers identify the early and sudden deaths are prosecuted?
The answer is simple. Those who control the police and courts have immunity from investigation and prosecution. Jacinda Ardern is another person who should be on trial for genocide. Their digital id is a special free pass.
I cant believe people like Hipkins is standing for office and people are still supporting him.
Spot the Western globalists all moving in unison to advance the proxy Digital ID’s and their broader, dystopian police state agenda. Australia has been the guinea pig, now the others are following suit, as per their wealthy global masters instructions.
I didnt see PornHub on the list??? guess its ok when the jews do it or your daughter is watching n****** gangbang White girls.
“Potential exemptions” will apply to all leftist sites that toe the line and keep the propaganda up.
Bans, fines and prosecutions will apply with a vengeance to any site that allows free speech or lets people share videos of 3rd worlders robbing, raping and beheading their way through Europe and elsewhere.
Social media just allows the truth to be shown to the general public. The professional liars obviously can’t have that. It’s disrupted all their best planned schemes for a decade now. They want you hearing, seeing and talking about approved topics only, and certainly not things like dying teens being handcuffed or attempted beheadings and grooming gangs.
Because in their unhinged desperation they seriously believe they can put the genie back into the bottle, and we’ll all just magically go back to believing the telly again.
They think if they just put a lid onto all of the growing anger and frustration it will somehow make it all go away. The only thing it will do is double it.
It isn’t “social media” angering people, it’s YOU.
“Those who make peaceful revolution impossible will make violent revolution inevitable”.
This is why Northern Ireland is rioting today, right now; and ALL of the other cucked nations should be doing the same!
Governments only have power if we allow them to have such-

Look at the lockstep nudge unit hard at work, its time to burn the global political system to the ground.
