Personal update: After seven years as OpenMedia’s Executive Director, I have decided to begin my next chapter. It was a difficult decision to leave an organization I love so much, but it’s time for new challenges.
If you’re reading this, and are looking for help, I love policy, government relations, and communications, and would love to put my public affairs skill set to use for a worthy cause.

Canadian digital policies have consequences: potential blocked services due to Bill C-11, blocked news links due to Bill C-18, and perhaps blocked AI services also due to Bill C-18. Canada fast becoming a digital outlier.

Given that the government has no Plan B, this was predictable. But to be clear, the law hasn’t taken effect yet nor has widespread blocking. This is about refusal to *negotiate* with @pablorodriguez about a law that has already received royal assent.
Parker Lund, a spokesperson for the Liberal Party, told The Globe Wednesday that the party is not changing its policy.
“We will continue to advertise on Meta platforms,” he said.

Put that Government of Canada advertising $ straight into buying ads in the local independent media that aren't being supported by C-18.

Tired of Big Telecom's monopoly on fibre internet? There's 1 WEEK remaining to tell the CRTC to take action.
This is our change to mandate fibre access for independent providers and break up the monopoly. openmedia.org/fast-tw #EnforceFibreWholesale via @OpenMediaOrg

I don't think Alberta realizes how much the telecom world is about to change here today after the Shaw-Rogers merger.

And there you have it. Federal government sides with Big Telecom instead of Canadians but tries to gaslight us into believing the opposite.
