Episode description

The CRTC has issued its requirement for streaming and podcast platforms earning more than $10 million a year to register with the government. Defenders of Bill C-11 say this means most independent content creators are unaffected: however, if the platforms are regulated by the CRTC, so is all the content on them, True North’s Andrew Lawton points out. In this episode, he debunks the government’s narrative on this internet takeover with former CRTC vice-chair Peter Menzies. Plus, a Liberal minister’s attempt at a gotcha on Pierre Poilievre backfires and Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe prepares to use the notwithstanding clause to defend parental rights.
