Advocacy Group Pushes to Ban Social Media for Kids Under 16

Abstract:

Unplugged Canada, a parent-led advocacy group, is calling on Ottawa to restrict social media access for children under 16, citing mental health risks like anxiety, depression, and self-harm. Backed by a federal petition, the group argues addictive platform design harms youth and urges stronger age protections alongside safer digital alternatives.
