Using this global news article because it’s the most “neutral” news site talking about this. I saw that “Bill C-11” was trending on Twitter and I noticed that the people losing their minds over it all seem to be conservatives/far-right folks. I don’t know much about this bill, only that it was similar to how our radio and tv programs are regulated.

The Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission does all that which essentially pushes Canadian content to the front or else it’d definitely get lost in the sauce. Now with this new bill they’d take on the responsibility of the internet too. I never thought much about it since we can still watch and listen to foreign media (guess it depends on your cable), it’s just never been an outright issue to me. Maybe because people are moving away from cable TV and use internet streaming more?

I don’t have a real opinion on this since I’ve mainly been focusing on Bill C-22. Google chimed in on this conversation saying Bill C-11 was a bad idea. I don’t tend to trust their judgement as they censor my searches enough as it is. So Google plus hyper cons opposing this Bill just left me with questions. I’m not tech savvy at all, so hopefully that tells you how uninformed I am. I’m genuinely unsure how this Bill is going to effect us, so I’d really appreciate someone who knows a lot more about this to explain this to me.

I’m asking here because I don’t trust twitter fascists and most of our news publishers have heavy biases:

This only goes up to 2015 but even now when looking for articles on Bill C-11 there were a lot that used unnecessary inflammatory language…
