This feels like the first Internet regulation bill from this government driven primarily by policy rather than implementing the demands of lobby groups or seeking to settle scores with big tech.
Of the seven harms , three are of the most concern being :” extremism/terrorism, inciting violence, fomenting hatred “. Where do you draw the line on terrorism and inciting? Is dissent and open online discussion and disgust with Government policy an incitement along with the misinformation tag ? Will that be cause for stifling heated online political discussion to shutdown opposition to government narratives on Climate Change, the WHO Pandemic treaty , Opposition to the 2030 UN Agenda? Will the discussions by writers and commenters on Substack be cause for censorship ? Will my online opposition to a
Palestinian protest in Toronto be considered hate and libellous? How much of this new law is a Trojan for importing the draconian internet laws of the EU ? No doubt Trudeau has already prepared for with this with discussions with his counterparts in the U.S. and Europe. After all Trudeau as we know only hears the drumbeats of the unelected Globalist Institutions ( UN, WHO, IMF , WEF ) most of whom are supported by Billionaires , Fascist leaning woke governments, Technocrats, and Big Pharma.
Throughout the past 4 years we witnessed relentless censorship (which continues) of verifiable facts backed up by patents, peer-reviewed medical studies, the IEEE and white papers.

These bills are worrisome for freedom of expression.
