The Canadian Chapter of the International Institute of Communications hosted its two-day annual conference at the National Arts Centre in Ottawa on May 16-17.
This year’s conference brought together leading communications sector players to discuss developments related to the major current issues in Canadian and international communications law and policy. In Canada, these developments include a number of proposed new pieces of legislation affecting the communications industry such as amendments to the Broadcasting Act, online harm, compensation for news media and the Accessibility Canada Act. Sessions are also being planned to cover the appropriate regulatory treatment of platforms, competition in the commercial mobile industry, solutions to the digital divide, dispute resolution, 5G and cybersecurity, Indigenous broadcasting, issues in the gaming industry, synthetic media, data collection procedures and more.
As always, keynote speakers addressed important domestic and international developments.
We give innovators and regulators a forum in which to explore, debate and agree the best policies and regulatory frameworks for widest societal benefit.
Insight: Exchange: Influence
We give members a voice through conferences, symposiums and private meetings, as well as broad exposure of their differing viewpoints through articles, reports and interviews.
The new website will make it easier for you to gather fresh insights, exchange views with others and have a voice in the debate
