Madam Speaker, I am sure that the member, had he been listening to my speech, would have known that at the beginning I said that I appreciated that the bill actually does say that the algorithms are protected. I did say that in my speech. Specifically, since the member spent a bit of his speech discussing my speech, which was very flattering, I will read what the bill actually says: In making regulations under subsection (1), the Commission shall consider the following matters: (a) the extent to which a program, uploaded to an online undertaking that provides a social media service, directly or indirectly generates revenues. In (b) and (c), the bill does not say “and/or”. It does not say any of that. It lists three different things. Any one of those things, individually, can be regulated according to the act.

Qujannamiik, Uqaqtittiji. The Conservatives have made it clear that they are good friends with our American neighbours and have referenced the importance of Canadian content as well. Does the member agree that Canadian content, such as “the medium is the message”, is a value to be protected, or is this more about allowing American sensationalism, such as “make America great again”, instead?
