Canada’s government has introduced legislation to prohibit social media use for individuals under the age of 16. The proposed bill seeks to protect young people from potential harms associated with online platforms, including cyberbullying and exposure to inappropriate content. Alongside restrictions on social media, the legislation addresses the growing concerns surrounding artificial intelligence. It proposes establishing a new digital regulator tasked with developing and enforcing safety standards for AI chatbots and other emerging technologies. This regulator will have the authority to oversee AI systems and ensure they operate responsibly. The bill represents a significant step towards increased online safety and digital wellbeing for Canadian youth, while simultaneously navigating the challenges presented by rapidly evolving AI. Further debate and potential amendments are expected as the bill progresses through Parliament.
