Industry Minister François-Philippe Champagne said the decision to dissolve TikTok of its Canadian business is meant to address risks perceived to be related to TikTok's Chinese parent company.

The icon for the video sharing TikTok app is seen on a smartphone, Feb. 28, 2023, in Marple Township, Pa.

“The government is not blocking Canadians’ access to the TikTok application or their ability to create content. The decision to use a social media application or platform is a personal choice," Champagne said.Champagne said it is important for Canadians to adopt good cybersecurity practices, including protecting their personal information.

“We will challenge this order in court,” the spokesperson said. “The TikTok platform will remain available for creators to find an audience, explore new interests and for businesses to thrive.” Canada's move comes a day after the election in the United States of Donald Trump. In June, Trump joined, a platform he once tried to ban while in the White House. It has about 170 million users in the U.S.
