    On April 27, 2023, Bill C-11, also known as the Online Streaming Act,
    received royal assent, becoming law more than two years after the
    precursor Bill C-10 was tabled by the former Liberal government and
    died on the order paper, and after nearly 15 months of extensive
    parliamentary debate and public controversy. The Online Streaming Act
    serves as the most expansive refresh of the Canadian Broadcasting Act
    in over 30 years, responding to rapid technological change by
    providing, among other things, a framework for the regulation of
    online broadcasters, including online streaming platforms.
