: eLegal CantonFollow the CRTC new media hearings
By David Canton
The CRTC started its new media hearing yesterday. It will consider whether the CRTC should regulate the Internet in some way - the thought being that it is just another form of broadcasting.
Its an important issue that will no doubt garner a lot of press. Michael Geist will provide detailed ongoing coverage. From his post yesterday:
Throughout the hearings, I’ll be teaming up with Carleton professor Ira Wagman to offer up a full summary of the day’s events as we’ll have students carefully taking notes on all the presentations and discussions.
