Bill C-11 committee Well, you know, two of the biggest successes on YouTube today are Torontonians. If you are a fan of viral videos, the “Stuff Girls Say” video—the word “stuff” is actually the word s-h-i-t, which I wouldn't say at a parliamentary committee—is one of the most popular channels on Yo

Bill C-11 committee I couldn't speak to why other sites around the world haven't developed their own similar type of system. It is a massive undertaking, a very complex engineering problem, and it's very difficult to solve. We're lucky we have some of the best computer scientists in the world at You

Bill C-11 committee Sure. We support the notice-and-notice regime in Canada. We think it provides the best possible balance between the rights of rights holders and artists who are looking to stop the infringement of their works online against the privacy and free speech interests of individuals who

Jacob Glick
Bill C-11 committee I think it's a critical issue for the success of the overall legal framework that is represented by copyright. I think all of the evidence around the world suggests that providing a viable market for digital cultural products is the best way to combat piracy and to get artists pa

Bill C-11 committee It depends. When you see something that's been removed from YouTube, it might have been removed as a consequence of a rights holder flagging it through the content ID system, or because of a take-down notice that Google has received under the U.S. notice-and-take-down system and

Bill C-11 committee The cloud computing model, as you probably know, is the movement of computing services and resources from the desktop or from a system of computers within a corporate network to the public Internet. If the operators of those services don't have the confidence that the materials t

Bill C-11 committee At YouTube we have developed one of the most sophisticated anti-piracy systems in the world—Content-ID. It allows the largest record companies in the world and small independent artists alike to give us copies of their music, which we then scan against the corpus of data on YouTu

Jacob Glick
Bill C-11 committee The short answer is that we've invested $30 million developing the system and over 50,000 hours of engineering time, and it's not a solved problem yet. It's very complicated because the manner in which rights are divided up is very complicated. The manner of deals within the indu

Bill C-11 committee Thank you, Mr. Chair. My name is Jacob Glick. I am Google's Canada policy counsel. It's my pleasure to talk to you today about copyright law, not only because I'm a copyright law nerd, but also because copyright law has become an increasingly important public policy issue for e

Jacob Glick
Industry committee I don't have those numbers, unfortunately. So we'll have to go with Toronto. You've seen our executive chairman, Eric Schmidt, speak about the importance of science, technology, engineering, and math education. That's critical, not just at the applied level—although the applied

Industry committee Well, it's both. We're hiring people from the University of Waterloo, undergraduates fresh out of computer science, and graduates of master's and Ph.D. programs. And we're hiring them from all across the country. We're also bringing back from the U.S. the Canadians who had career
