Online Harms Conference

Canadians are increasingly coming face to face with the rise of hate-motivated crimes.

We have seen the role that hate online plays in affecting our communities - from the Quebec City Mosque massacre, to the targeting of female journalists, to the harassment of Black and Indigenous activists, and everywhere in between.

How should our leaders deal with this problem, what are the implications of potential regulation, and how might diverse communities work together on solutions that balance between the need to address online harms while upholding civil liberties?

NCCM, along with OpenMedia, is convening a full-day conference in Ottawa on September 23rd for a critical discussion of online harms regulation as the Online Harms Act (Bill C-63) winds its way through the House of Commons.
