SUBMIT YOUR COMMENTS OR VIEWS ON THE MOON REPORT

The Canadian Human Rights Commission launched a review of the most appropriate mechanisms to address hate on the Internet, with a specific emphasis on the role of the Commission and of section 13 of the Canadian Human Rights Act.

Professor Richard Moon, of the University of Windsor, has delivered his report and it is now available online.

As the next step of the review process, the Commission welcomes public commentary and views on the Moon Report. The Commission will review the submissions and take them into consideration to better inform its recommendations to Parliament on possible legislative and administrative changes.
