Thanks @mgeist and @taylor_owen With more time, I am convinced we could have solved a bunch of tech law and policy issues. The gist: Announce now to split the bill, get Part 1 to committee stat for thorough study and amendments, start building out the Digital Safety Office.

Yesterday we released our national survey about the Canadian media environment, how people feel their needs are being met, and the role of the CBC/Radio-Canada within that. This thread is a great summary of the report's key findings. ⬇️

How do Canadians really feel about the CBC? Do they actually want to see it defunded? To what extent does the political discourse match public sentiment? We're releasing a national survey today, called #DoWeNeedtheCBC? It answers those questions & more: bit.ly/CBC-Radio-Can-…

In a new episode of @_machineslikeus I got to speak to @cduhigg @nitashatiku and @cwarzel about the role of tech, VCs and Musk in the US election. podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/mac…

Excellent piece by @EmilyLaidlaw + @taylor_owen There is still time to separate dangerously broad portions of #BillC63 and use committee time to get Part 1 right. But the window is narrowing every day, and a lot of sound work may go down the drain. thestar.com/opinion/contri…

Our three-step plan to save the Online Harms Act, and the urgency of doing this now. As ever, thanks @taylor_owen for the collaboration.
