Personal update: After seven years as OpenMedia’s Executive Director, I have decided to begin my next chapter. It was a difficult decision to leave an organization I love so much, but it’s time for new challenges.

If you’re reading this, and are looking for help, I love policy, government relations, and communications, and would love to put my public affairs skill set to use for a worthy cause.

If you’d like to meet up over a coffee or Zoom, let me know! I’m overdue to catch up with so many of you, and it feels a bit surreal to finally have this space and time to do so. And if you see something you think might be a good fit for me, I’m all ears.

Canadian digital policies have consequences: potential blocked services due to Bill C-11, blocked news links due to Bill C-18, and perhaps blocked AI services also due to Bill C-18. Canada fast becoming a digital outlier. x.com/AnjaKaradeglija/status…

Canada is now one of only a few countries in the world — alongside Russia and China — not to have access to Google’s artificial-intelligence-based chatbot Bard, as Google’s stand-off with the Liberal government over regulation continues nationalpost.com/news/politi… via @nationalpost

Given that the government has no Plan B, this was predictable. But to be clear, the law hasn’t taken effect yet nor has widespread blocking. This is about refusal to *negotiate* with @pablorodriguez about a law that has already received royal assent.
We have decided to take the necessary step of suspending all Government of Canada advertising to Facebook. We cannot continue paying advertising dollars to Meta while they refuse to pay their fair share to Canadian news organizations.

Put that Government of Canada advertising $ straight into buying ads in the local independent media that aren't being supported by C-18.

Tired of Big Telecom's monopoly on fibre internet? There's 1 WEEK remaining to tell the CRTC to take action. This is our change to mandate fibre access for independent providers and break up the monopoly. openmedia.org/fast-tw #EnforceFibreWholesale via @OpenMediaOrg

I don't think Alberta realizes how much the telecom world is about to change here today after the Shaw-Rogers merger.

And there you have it. Federal government sides with Big Telecom instead of Canadians but tries to gaslight us into believing the opposite.
