🔹All individuals featured in online material give their consent prior to any uploads.
🔹Canadians who are victims of an image or video shared without their permission have the right to have that material removed immediately and should be presumed to be non-consensual.

🔹Engagement with survivors, child advocacy organizations, victim support services, and law enforcement should take place before any laws or regulations regarding the protection of privacy and reputation on online platforms are implemented.
🔹Establish a legal framework that mandates internet service providers to employ available tools to combat the persistent re-uploading of illegal content and to hire, train, and adequately supervise staff for effective moderation and removal of content.

The profit derived from exploitation and sex trafficking must be eradicated. Survivors are entitled to justice.

Common-sense Conservatives will enforce current laws, impose harsher penalties for offenders and gangs, eliminate the revolving door of repeat violent criminals through incarceration instead of bail, and prioritize the rights of victims, survivors, and law-abiding Canadians to eradicate crime.

I encourage all Canadians to read Takedown: Inside the Fight to Shut Down Pornhub for Child Abuse, Rape and Sex Trafficking.

Thank you, Laila Mickelwait, for your exceptional leadership on behalf of survivors everywhere. Along with the many courageous advocates and fighters across Canada and globally, you have profoundly influenced me as an elected official, and I genuinely hope to have contributed to advancing this vital cause, which is far from complete. Keep pushing forward!
