The internet Canadians now know could change dramatically if the country doesn't get its digital strategy right.
In this episode of The Mark Radio, host Chris Mitchell talks with four media commentators about how the internet is changing, and what Canada can do to shape that change.
Guests include:
Carmi Levy, discussing the implications of Apple's decision to take down 5,000 "overtly sexual" apps from its App Store.
Alan Sawyer, on the dangers of Canada losing its digital sovereignty by depending too much on foreign-owned services like Google and Facebook.
Michael Geist, urging the Canadian government to adopt a comprehensive digital strategy – and quickly.
And finally, Peter Nowak, talking about his new book Sex, Bombs and Burgers, which argues that war, pornography and fast food have created technology as we know it.
