Initiated by Murdoch Macleod from Calgary, Alberta

Original language of petition: English

Petition to the Minister of Canadian Heritage

Whereas:
  • Many Canadians are deeply concerned by the proposed changes the government has put forward in Bill C-10;
  • Freedom of expression is a Canadian value and enshrined in the Charter;
  • Recently, Members of the government caucus have voted against the section of their own bill that would have at least partially exempted individual users who upload videos to social media sites like YouTube and Facebook from CRTC regulation under the Bill;
  • The government has also promised to introduce a new amendment to regulate apps;
  • Bill C-10 is another unacceptable attempt to target the freedoms of individual internet users in Canada, and;
  • This is unacceptable in a society that values its freedom.
We, the undersigned, citizens and residents of Canada, call upon the Minister of Canadian Heritage to immediately stop his attack on freedom of speech and expression.
