The Carney Liberals are planning to unveil a U-16 social media ban, one of many portions to the incoming Digital Safety Act. Per reports, the ban will be similar to what was enacted last year in Australia, but it’s not expected to include the same type of ban for A.I. chatbots. A trio of other countries are mulling over social media bans, while Malaysia just implemented their own U-16 legislation. Meantime, for supervision purposes, Brazil requires youth accounts to be linked to those of a legal guardian. What is the best pathway for Canada to take? In Hour 1, Kristy Cameron opens the debate floor to Jenny Perez, the founder of Unplugged Canada. Meantime, the federal government is offering a lifeline loan to airlines who are struggling with the soaring cost of jet fuel. The new program will let airlines borrow up to $150 million each, as pressures from the Iran War strains operations. We check in with John Gradek, an aviation analyst who has previously worked in senior positions at Air Canada. But first, we bring you up to speed on today’s top headlines.
