Episode Details

The Liberals originally promised a bill tackling online harms would come within 100 days of their re-election in 2021.

Instead, Justice Minister Arif Virani tabled their new act on Monday, which aims to create a new commission and regulate content from hate, to extremism, bullying and child abuse materials.

CBC senior reporter Raffy Boudjikanian explains.
