BREAKING: @pablorodriguez just announced a complete rejection of @SenateCA's #BillC11 work that excluded YOUR user content from CRTC regulation.

Your podcasts? CRTC regulated. Your TikToks? Potentially regulated. We're stunned and furious!

@theJagmeetSingh, the CRTC could soon be deciding if YOUR TikToks with music are 'Canadian'- or need to be downranked in Canada.

You can still step up NOW and fix this. The NDP's #BillC11 support must not rubber stamp a bill with this much unchecked power over our speech.
@yfblanchet, nous avons vu l'Assemblée du Québec protester contre l'ÉNORME pouvoir sur le contenu que #C11 donne à Ottawa.

Allez-vous les rejoindre ? Ou est-ce qu'Ottawa va maintenant décider qui est un authentique producteur de la culture québécoise?

We have enormous respect for @MargaretAtwood, but her comments on Bill C-11 as reported in the @globeandmail this weekend were misguided and uninformed. The Writers Guild of Canada fully supports the spirit and intent of #C11. (🧵 1/4)
To tell stories, audiovisual writers require access to investment and distribution platforms, which are increasingly controlled by giant foreign tech companies. #C11 seeks to advance longstanding 🇨🇦 cultural policy objectives by requiring these giants to support 🇨🇦 content. (2/4)
Comparisons of #C11 to the Soviet Union or the like, by Ms. Atwood + Senator David Richards, are completely inaccurate + harmful to their fellow 🇨🇦 creators. @WGCtweet has studied C11 closely. See our detailed FAQ on why we support the intent of C11: wgc.ca/node/355212 (3/4)

Some good lines by @TomValletti in @simonvandorpe pc. Google "created a moat to make it easy to get into the platform & impossible to get out[;]..
2/3 of searches..don’t leave the platform... I was there ..to pull out the BS..& I worked my ass off". #CTRS ftm.eu/articles/maver…
2/ Scale, speed & supranat'l scale distinguishes big tech power now from when antitrust mvmt emerged in early 20C in response to Standard Oil. Scale allows these firms to threaten govts, as Facebook is doing now in Canada wrt to the Online News Act bill, ie deplatform news'. #C18
. @EuropeanCommiss #DMA prohibits Big Tech platforms to give advantages to their own services. So, too, does my fav part of #C18, the Online News Act (s51). This is way better than the weak beer found in #C11, the Online Streaming Act. #CRTC

The Trudeau Liberals always fail:
-to be accountable
-to be transparent
-to protect freedom
-to do what's best for Canadians

Conservatives are fighting for common sense, because that's what Canadians want! @NDP

Private Member's Bill, which would amend the Income Tax Act to allow skilled tradespeople to deduct travel expenses on their income tax claims. Though the Liberals opposed this Bill, it passed second reading today with the support of other parties. @NDP @CharlieAngusNDP
