Zoom link for Bill C-9

What stands out to me is how these kinds of bills often create a tension between protecting people from harm and protecting freedom of expression. Both are important, but where the line is drawn can have long term consequences. That is why it is important that people take the time to understand the wording and how it could be applied in real situations.
I think the political side of this is also worth paying attention to. Deals between parties to get legislation passed are not new, but it does raise questions about how priorities are set. Sometimes it can feel like certain bills move forward not just because of public demand, but because of negotiations happening behind the scenes.
