A Nova Scotia anti-cyberbullying law that was inspired by the death of Rehtaeh Parsons has been redrafted and is now in force.

The Youth Matter Wellness Conference took place Wednesday Jan. 17 at Springs Church in Winnipeg.

David Fraser, a prominent Internet and privacy lawyer, says the Intimate Images and Cyber-protection Act will place a barrier on those may need it the most. 

The original Cyber-safety Act, the first of its kind in Canada, was struck down in late 2015 after the Nova Scotia Supreme Court ruled that it infringed on Charter rights.

This week, 6 young men were given conditional discharges for sharing intimate images of underage girls.

A high-profile Nova Scotia case is shining a light on the consequences of sharing intimate images without consent.

A rare charge of wilful promotion of hatred has been laid against an Edmonton man who police said ran several hate-based websites that promoted violence.

The walk is in memory of Rehtaeh Parsons and works to raise awareness of sexualized violence and consent.

Rehtaeh Parsons' mother believes there is a heightened awareness in Nova Scotia around sharing intimate images following what happened to her daughter.

The Nova Scotia government says all of the recommendations in a review of how Nova Scotia police and prosecutors handled the high-profile Rehtaeh Parsons case have either been put in place or are underway.
