The National Post reports in its Wednesday, Nov. 26, edition that a new report reveals that almost 40 per cent of Canadian teens who say they have been sexually victimized on-line say it occurred on the private messaging app Snapchat. The Post's Stephanie Taylor writes that the findings, released by the Canadian Centre for Child Protection on Tuesday, were collected through a survey based on responses from nearly 1,300 teens. It comes as calls grow from child safety advocates for Prime Minister Mark Carney's government to present new legislation to better protect children on-line, including by introducing regulations for tech platforms. The report from the child protection centre calls on platforms to enhance their safety regimes, particularly when it comes to private messaging, citing that it has been where a majority of the teens surveyed reported experiencing some form of on-line sexual violence. The report said, "If the guiding principles of an on-line safety regime are to safeguard children and prevent harm, then it must devote significant attention to the outsized role private communication services and functions play in the facilitation of on-line sexual victimization of teens in Canada."
