For all of us, this is incredibly important.
I can assure the Australian people that the determination around the National Cabinet table today was equal to the determination around the nation.

4. Banning deepfake pornography.
Creating and sharing non-consensual sexually explicit material using AI technology will be subject to serious criminal penalties. This content is deeply harmful towards women and girls, there should be zero tolerance for it.

The collective history of the subjugation, enslavement, r*pe, and murder of women by men must be considered by far the largest, longest-lasting, and most destructive atrocity in human history. It is long past time to recognize and address it as such.

On 28 April, 1996 at Port Arthur, 35 lives were stolen in the worst mass shooting in our nation’s history, an atrocity seared in our collective memory.
Just as the grief of those who lost loved ones has not faded with time, the devastation of Port Arthur still resonates with all Australians.

Women in Australia deserve better, governments have to do better and as a society we have to do better.
That's why we'll be convening the National Cabinet with one issue on the agenda: immediate, meaningful and practical action to address family violence.

But we know it'll take more than marches alone. This is a national issue, and it deserves national action.

I have issues with Trudeau (CERB clawbacks, inaction on Reconciliation/basic income, and MAID expansion mainly), but Poilievre's in another league. He's Canadian MAGA, running to be puppet leader of Vichy Canada under Trump.

This includes patients experiencing an eye injury, issues with hearing, or coming in for specialist procedures like cataract surgery or cochlear implants.
