Kids Help Phone, a Toronto, Ontario-based 24/7 counselling and information service for young people, recently asked University of Ontario Institute of Technology (UOIT) researcher Dr. Andrea Slane for a blog contribution on Sexting and the Law.

In the blog, the Associate Professor of Legal Studies in UOIT’s Faculty of Social Science and Humanities outlines the current definitions of sexting and cyberbullying, and examines how these online activities are treated by Canada’s legal system.
