What is different about our online
reputations?
Nothing has changed, yet everything has changed
• Gossip has existed for as long as humans
have existed
• You can’t stop others from talking about you
• But... the Internet has dramatically accelerated
and intensified how information about you is
shared

Information lives forever online

damaging reputations

significant:

Reputation vs. Free Speech
“ The Law protects a person’s reputation but this protection
can restrict other rights, such as the right to free speech….
Sometimes, even though someone made a defamatory
statement that hurts a person’s reputation, the law considers
other rights more important.”
-- Canadian Bar Association

What can be done?
• Protecting people’s reputation is a shared responsibility
between people, dataholders and the state.
• People have a big role to play:
• Become digital curators of your online self
• Use common sense – think before you click!

Dear Ms Bernier:
I just received notice that my grievance will be referred to
adjudication at the Public Service Labour Relations Board. I
am concerned because the grievance involves matters of
discrimination and medical information. I am considering
abandoning my grievance because I don’t want my personal
information posted on the internet. I am really torn because
finally resolving this matter at adjudication is very
important to me, however, I don’t want my job prospects to be
threatened because of the internet publication of my name.

One of the most heartbreaking
overlooked moments in the case
of Rehtaeh Parsons – the 17-
year-old Nova Scotian who
killed herself in April after
allegedly being raped and
bullied – came in a blog post
written by her father three days
after her death.
“I had to write something about
this,” one line read. “I don’t
want her life to be defined by a
Google search about suicide or
death or rape. I want it to be
about the giving heart she had.”
