加拿大正在採取大膽措施，以在數位時代保護其最年輕的公民。
Canada is taking bold steps to safeguard its youngest citizens in the digital age.
聯邦政府計畫在2026年6月前，推出《數位安全法》與《加拿大數位安全委員會法》。
By June 2026, the federal government plans to introduce the Digital Safety Act and the Digital Safety Commission of Canada Act.
此立法的主要目標是實施針對16歲以下兒童的社群媒體禁令，儘管符合嚴格安全標準的平台可獲豁免。
The primary goal of this legislation is to implement a ban on social media access for children under 16, though platforms meeting strict safety standards may be granted exemptions.
為確保這些規定獲得遵守，將成立一個新的監管機構——數位安全委員會，以追究科技巨頭的責任。
To ensure these rules are followed, a new regulator, the Digital Safety Commission, will be established to hold tech giants accountable.
除了社群媒體外，政府也正專注於規管人工智慧（AI）聊天機器人，以防止資料遭到剝削及隱私外洩等風險。
Beyond social media, the government is also focusing on regulating AI chatbots to prevent risks like data exploitation and privacy breaches.
馬克·米勒（Marc Miller）部長強調，這項倡議是首要任務，主因在於對網路霸凌、心理健康及兒童安全的迫切擔憂。
Minister Marc Miller has emphasized that this initiative is a top priority, driven by urgent concerns over cyberbullying, mental health, and child safety.
儘管2025年曾試圖監管網路失敗，但由馬克·卡尼（Mark Carney）總理領導的現任政府已獲得顯著的民眾支持。
While a previous attempt at online regulation failed in 2025, the current administration, led by Prime Minister Mark Carney, has garnered significant public support.
此舉使加拿大與澳大利亞等國一致，積極尋求類似的年齡限制，以為下一代創造更安全的網路環境。
This move aligns Canada with other nations like Australia that are actively pursuing similar age-based restrictions to create a safer online environment for the next generation.
