Description

In this episode, we explore the legal and political implications of Bill C-18, the Online News Act, and the ongoing battle between the Canadian government and social media giants.

Our guest, Dr. Elizabeth Dubois, Associate Professor and University Research Chair in Politics, Communication, and Technology at the University of Ottawa, breaks down the motivations behind Bill C-18, its impact on Canadian news access, and the broader consequences for media regulation in Canada. She also examines how similar legislation has played out internationally and what the future might hold for digital news intermediaries.
