This week on the podcast: The Trudeau Liberals insist they are sticking up for Canadian journalism by forcing tech giants to pay media outlets for content shared on social media. So far, the news is all bad
Welcome back to Inside the Village, a one-of-a-kind podcast where all news is local — and no topic is off-limits.After months of debate, the Trudeau government has passed Bill C-18, a controversial piece of legislation aimed at forcing tech giants like Facebook and Google to compensate media outlets for content shared on their social media platforms.
Bottom line: Instead of being forced to pay up, Facebook would rather wipe all traces of reliable, factual journalism from your feed. Michael Geist understands the implications of Bill C-18 as well as anyone. The Canada Research Chair in Internet and E-commerce Law at the University of Ottawa, Geist joins Inside the Village to talk about the new legislation: Who wins? Who loses? And what does it all mean for the future of quality local reporting, including the kind featured every day on this website?
