Yeah, so it is a multi-year national program by Rogers to help Canadian families address excessive screen use.
Like we're of the generation of like we knew a world without iPads and iPhones and, you know, all that.
The newer generation, the younger generation hasn't had that.
They've grown up with iPads.
They've grown up with phones from a very young age.
So this is a program that's set up by Rogers Screen Break.
And it's going to include parental controls, youth programming, research and partnerships and education and advocacy.
Essentially, what it helps is it just helps to manage that screen time.
so that youth programming aspect includes a visit to schools with athletes and experts to talk about how to manage screen time.
And, you know, athletes are going to share how they navigate it as well.
This is not only an issue that, you know, the younger generation deals with.
Like, I got my screen time issues as well.
I'd like to decrease it.
We're going to be joined...
by Sarah Nurse tomorrow, heading up Mosscrop Secondary and Burnaby Central in Burnaby.
So with experts, we're just going to just have a chat.
And Sarah's been a part of this campaign, and she's been trying to manage it herself.
I think she mentioned that she was on her for only, what, six hours a day, and she wanted to drop that number a little bit.
I'm not going to lie.
I've had my seven-hour days, too.
