28% of parents in Canada have spanked their child (Afifi, 2026). And we wonder why there is a femincide crisis? Spanking is linked to violence in adulthood. We gotta keep talking about this. Answer Truth and Reconciliation call to action 6. Make spanking illegal. No amendments for teachers.

Ban/delays on screen time is promoted by conservative purity culture politics. Most children are abused by a parent or someone they know. Many children access rights to knowledge and even report abuse online. They are strong political actors, organizing online against archaic patriarchal norms.

Screen time bans harm the most vulnerable who are also powerful voices. Young people facing poverty, discrimination, or violence at home. Online spaces are access to safety, culture & connection. Let’s never isolate & silence them. Laws must centre those most impacted. #DigitalRights
