The debate over Bill C-11 – the Online Streaming Act – seems likely to come to an end this week, at least in the House of Commons. Last week, the government introduced a motion to put an end to committee debate and set tight timelines for any further review or discussion. Before it becomes forgotten, this week’s Law Bytes podcast is devoted to the House committee hearings on the bill with clips from a wide range of digital creators, interest groups, and independent experts on the potential Bill C-11 harms to user content.
The episode features (in order of appearance): CRTC Chair Ian Scott, Canadian Heritage Minister Pablo Rodriguez, Morghan Fortier, Oorbee Roy, Justin Tomchuk, JJ McCullough, Jeanette Patel, Scott Benzie, Patrick Rogers, Matt Hatfield, Michael Geist, Rachael Thomas, John Lewis, Stephane Cardin, Monica Auer.

I really like this blog. It’s a very informative topic. It helps me a lot to solve some problems. Its opportunities are too great and the working style is very quick.
I would really like to listen to this podcast but the volume levels jump around so much. One second I’ve got the volume cranked to hear it, the next I’m trying to turn it down before my speakers blow up. Please normalize your volume levels.
We should design some pixel art style pictures to propagate this.
