CLASH OVER ONLINE STREAMING BILL

 The online streaming bill, which has passed the House of Commons and is now being considered by the Senate, would force streaming platforms to promote Canadian TV, movies, videos or music, and help fund Canadian content.

YouTube executive Jeanette Patell said the amendments the company is asking for will not limit the financial contribution it's already making to support Canadian content.

Patell told a Senate committee last month that Bill C-11 gives far too much discretion to Canada's broadcasting regulators to make demands around user-generated content.
