Event: Canadian Content in a Digital World - June 21 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. U Ottawa

[Tracey P. Lauriault]

Canadian Content in a Digital World

Rapidly changing tech and consumer behavior are calling for Canadian cultural policies that keep pace with our digital world.

As you know, the Government recently launched public consultations with consumers and content creators to help Canada's creative sector navigate this transformation. The upcoming federal review is an important opportunity to position Canada as a global leader, and the Forum is proud to be leading a new project to address this timely issue.

Please join me for a big thinking discussion based on three new reports on Canadian content rules from C.D. Howe Institute, Fraser Institute, and Canadian Centre for Policy Alternatives (forthcoming).

Free tickets are available on our website. You can also register for the live webcast.

Tuesday, June 21 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. at University of Ottawa, Desmarais Building, 55 Laurier Ave. E Suite 12102

Agenda:

10:00 a.m.        Keynote address: Zarqa Nawaz, Creator, Little Mosque on the Prairie

Does this mean you'll miss the Stat Can thing at the same time with Bjenk?  I doubt the Stat Can thing will be as interesting.
