Aside from COVID-19, the digital world will be a major focus of Parliament once it resumes this fall, with several significant pieces of legislation expected to be introduced — or reintroduced — by the government.
The Liberals have promised to table several major bills within the government’s first 100 days, with the clock beginning to tick following the new cabinet’s swearing-in, expected to be in October.
Among the bills is legislation to establish a regulatory system for social media platforms to combat harmful online content, and making digital giants pay news outlets for their work.
