Matt Thompson, director of Save the Internet's award-winning "Independence Day"video, joins City TV's New Media Specialist Amber MacArthur; online expertKris Krug; and consultants Mark Kuznicki and Jason Roks to talk 'net neutrality' at nextMEDIA: The Future of Digital Content, Canada's premiere event for digital content producers. The sister event to the Banff World Television Festival, nextMEDIA takes place June 8 - 10, 2007 at the Fairmont Banff Springs in Banff, Alberta.

Dubbed the ‘First Amendment of the Internet' in the United States, ‘net neutrality’ has been called "THE central issue in the development of the architecture of the media platform of the future." It aims to ensure the public can view the smallest blogs just as easily as the largest corporate Websites. Although the issue has yet to gain the same momentum in Canada as it has the United States, that could all change if a report by the federally appointed Telecommunications Policy Review Panel that recommends changes to the Telecommunications Act is implemented.
