Watching strong testimony to Canadian Parliament in support of #BillC18 from news industry and former Australian competition commissioner who studied and rolled out very similar law and has seen it work firsthand to balance bargaining power for news press small and large. /1
Rod Sims has since produced a report on the results in Australia which compel Google and Facebook to negotiate with press small and large. This is the bill which FB pulled news from its service and WSJ reported intentionally caused chaos to try to disrupt its evential passing. /2
Very few people have Google and Facebook’s back in trying to stop the Canadian bill. Even less than in Australia. The same people show up spreading misinformation suggesting the bills “tax links” or incentivize “click bait” - this is simply untrue. /3
