The purpose of proposed paragraph 11.1(1)(c) is to ensure representation of the public interest. Of course, if it is used to support an individual, the individual's participation in a CRTC process must be related to the public interest.
If this relates to the regulation of broadcasting activities, again, in the vast majority of cases, individuals will not be considered broadcasters. Proposed subsection 2(2.1) is very clear with respect to individuals who use social media: they are not considered broadcasters and are therefore not subject to CRTC regulation, regardless of their number of followers and their revenues. Again, someone who has a large following on social media will not be subject to CRTC regulation as a broadcaster.
