Bill C-11 – the Online Streaming Act is about to pass the Senate
Runkle of the Bailey has a useful explainer of how Bill C-11 will promote corporate Canadian content at the expense of smaller independent creators. Original f2sg.substack article with link to petition is here. Not good, given how badly corporate media has covered COVID-19.
Rally at Markham and Lawrence this Saturday from 12pm - 1pm
Please bring a sign, flag, flyers etc. if you have them. This is a chance to make connections. People have expressed interest in home schooling and alternate communities. UofT is enforcing vaccine mandates for residences at Scarborough Campus. Mayor Tory and Councillor Ainslie are both back with their dismal approach to public health.
If you can’t see us from the corner at Markham and Lawrence, then check the parking lot in front of Healthy Planet or inside Healthy Planet if it rains!
