They always wrap this up in “for the kids” and “protect grandma”. You better believe this went through the government’s behavioral sciences advisory board before being presented.

The people have less and less say every day. If we're a democracy, so is Canada 🤡🇬🇧

You can protect ur children by not tucking them in at night with an ipad!

Parents need to step up and watch their own children, we’re sick of things being banned because parents are on Twitter all night long ignoring what their kids are doing. Their giving babies phones to keep them quiet, the nursery is next, then into school it’s the teachers they want to take responsibility for their kids. Not good enough get off social media and watch your own kids.

Who decides what is 'harmful' for 68million unique individuals?

My children handed their phones in after school and we bought basic phones which could call and text but couldn't access the internet, we had one laptop and it stayed in the lounge where they could go on it anytime but we were always around to see what they were doing. Parents need to start parenting their kids and not expecting schools and others to do it for them. The on line safety bill has given the power of the police to charge us with hate crimes if we say something that offends or upsets someone and is also used to close down those the certain agendas disagree with by reporting them for a hate crime for anything they write

There needs to be something. Let's hope they get it right for future generations.

The state is gradually replacing GPs, parents, the church / moral framework, critical thinking and on and on...

[paulskinback]

You should sign a waver to go on social media. End of.
