Canada's Justice Minister Broadens Deepfake Bill
Description
Canadas Justice Minister Sean Fraser opens the door to expanding the definition of sexualized deepfakes in Bill C-16, which aims to update the Criminal Code to include AI-generated visual representations made without consent. The bill, part of Prime Minister Mark Carneys election promise, will undergo clause-by-clause review starting tomorrow. Advocates and witnesses have called for broader language to cover nearly nude images and unrealistic ones, like those created by tools like Elon Musks Grok AI. Both NDP and Conservative parties have amendments ready to widen the scope, with Fraser aiming to avoid delays and pass the bill before summer.
