Canada banned social media for kids. So why can't anyone enforce it?

The headline says Canada is banning social media for kids under 16.But what does Bill C-34 actually do?In this episode, Kelsi Sheren breaks down the proposed Safe Social Media Act, the creation of a new Digital Safety Commission, the exemption structure available to social media platforms, and the government’s own admission that the body responsible for enforcement may not be operational for 18 months after the bill becomes law.There is a legitimate debate over how Canada should protect children online. But there is also a larger question about who gets to make decisions for minors and where parents fit into that process.Canada’s legal system can recognize a young person as capable of consenting to medical treatment under the mature minor doctrine. At the same time, Bill C-34 proposes a national age threshold for social media access, with exemptions determined through a federal regulatory process rather than by parents.So what is actually being banned? When would enforcement begin? Who decides which platforms receive exemptions? And does the headline match the legislation?Read the sources. Read the bill.
