CRTC Gone Astray - Part 2 with Monica Auer
<p>In this, the second instalment of PIAC's series on the 'CRTC Gone Astray', Monica notes that the CRTC has abandoned data collection, and its public disclosure and has not measured results in implementing the new Online Streaming Act (which amends the Broadcasting Act), which means it is impossible to know if the requirements of the Broadcasting Act, to in part ensure the amount and quality of Canadian content (CanCon), or indeed any other objectives.</p><p>Although the discussion is at times technical sounding, the principles being ignored are easy: first, making decisions based on evidence and measuring results. Second, procedural shortcuts also taken by the CRTC appear to us to undermine the rule of law and risk the spectre that "might makes right". Let's avoid that.</p><p>We close with more examples of disclosure of information in CRTC telecommunications that would benefit the public if it were not kept confidential: the Rogers outage in 2022 (and the related full Report to the CRTC); the BCE (Bell) - Northwestel sale to Sixty North Unity; and a CRTC hearing on historical inmate calling rates in Ontario.</p><p> </p> <p><p><a href="https://www.canadahelps.org/dn/14349"><strong>Make a donation</strong></a> to PIAC, right now, through Canada Helps: https://www.piac.ca/become-a-donor/</p></p>
