Bill C-18 and the Future of News

For our season two premiere, hosts Addie Guan and Julie Patton explore how Bill C-18—otherwise known as the Online News Act—is transforming the way information travels on social media. Addie talks to Michael Geist, Canadian research chair in internet and e-commerce law at the University of Ottawa, to break down the basics of the bill, and Julie talks to Matthew Johnson, director of education at the digital literacy non-profit Media Smarts, to learn how youth can better discern fact from fiction in their digital spaces.
