This week’s Hub Dialogue Roundtable discusses this week’s federal budget, which paints an increasingly grim portrait of the Canadian economy and fiscal policy in Ottawa. We also talk to Kevin Chan, the global policy campaign strategies director at Meta, who gives us his perspective on Bill C-18, which seeks to compel the big online platforms to pay for news-related content.
