About Media Literacy Week 2025
“Wait… What?”
In an increasingly complex digital world, we often find ourselves asking, “wait… what?” Tools like AI or social media and challenges such as misinformation or online hate can seem difficult to navigate. Media Literacy Week is here to answer Canadians’ questions about being online in changing times.
Hosted by MediaSmarts, Media Literacy Week is a national event to promote digital media literacy, with activities and events taking place in classrooms, libraries, museums and community groups across Canada.
