Debating the Online Harms Act: Insights from Two Recent Panels on Bill C-63
Video from recent CIJA and University of Ottawa Centre for Law, Technology and Society events
The Online Harms Act has sparked widespread debate over the past six weeks. I’ve covered the bill in a trio of Law Bytes podcast (Online Harms, Canada Human Rights Act, Criminal Code) and participated in several panels focused on the issue. Those panels are posted below. First, a panel titled the Online Harms Act: What’s Fact and What’s Fiction, sponsored by CIJA that included Emily Laidlaw, Richard Marceau and me. It paid particular attention to the intersection between the bill and online hate.
Second, a panel titled Governing Online Harms: A Conversation on Bill C-63, sponsored by the University of Ottawa Centre for Law, Technology and Society that covered a wide range of issues and included Emily Laidlaw, Florian Martin-Bariteau, Jane Bailey, Sunil Gurmukh, and me.

The rise of antisemitism is alarming and preceeded the events of October 7th, 2023.
However, it is rightfully non-compliant Canadians who were disparaged as "antivaxxers" by corporate media sponsored by Pfizer and the treasonous Government of Canada who were violently assaulted, fired from their jobs and endured pension theft while their fellow Canadians cheered for their revoked health-care and death. Anyone who fails to acknowledge this gutting injustice which wasn't supported by legislation is acting like a hypocrite.
