The bill calls for digital platforms to contribute to the sector equitably, as do Canadian distributors and broadcasters.
Why ask the regulator to do this? First of all, it is an independent tribunal of experts. It's not unique to the broadcasting sector, where the legislator asks the regulator to do this kind of work.

So it's done in several sectors.
