Quebec's Justice Minister proposes a bill to stop non-consensual sharing of intimate images, with penalties for non-compliance.

Quebec's Justice Minister Simon Jolin-Barrette has proposed a bill to prevent the non-consensual sharing of intimate images. The legislation allows individuals to quickly obtain a judge's order online or at a courthouse to stop the distribution of such content, demand its destruction, or de-index associated links. Non-compliance may incur daily fines of $5,000 to $50,000 and up to 18 months in jail. The bill also addresses unauthorized pornography websites.
