On today's show, we discuss this years election campaign with Dr. Stewart Prest, a lecturer and political scientist at Simon Fraser University. Elizabeth Dubois, an associate professor of communication with the University of Ottawa talks electronic tracking of voters, and why it's a thorny topic in such a tight race. Plus, we learn what critical care triage could mean in Alberta ICUs with Dr. Noel Gibney, professor emeritus in the department of critical care medicine at the University of Alberta. 

CTVNews.ca Rachel Aiello and Nanos Research's Nik Nanos are back with another episode of Trend Line. On today's episode Rachel and Nik discuss how military misconduct and Canada’s vaccine rollout have intersected, and how it ranks as an issue of concern for Canadians. And, as economies around the world start to reopen, how do Canadians feel about the strength of Canada's economy? After the break Elizabeth Dubois, a digital media and political communications professor from the University of Ottawa, joins the chat to discuss the Liberal government's Bill C-10 and other online regulation aims. How will these policies affect our lives online and will they achieve what the government intends? It's an enlightening conversation on a topic that we're sure to hear about more in the future. A note for our listeners: Nik Nanos is an honourary captain in the Royal Canadian Navy. During the discussion, the video streaming service Crave is mentioned. Crave is owned by Bell Media, which also owns CTV News. For more from Elizabeth Dubois and her students you can go to www.polcommtech.ca.

Nick is a long-time campaigner and former Hill staffer. He and Elizabeth talk about opinion leaders and the two step flow hypothesis. In theory these opinion leaders use social pressure and social support to influence their friends and family but Nick argues that kind of influence just isn't that useful in most federal campaigns.Additional Resources:Academic journal article by Katz (he and Lazarsfeld first developed the idea): Two-Step Flow of Communication: An Up-to-Date Report on an Hypothesis. The article is from 1957, so it was up-to-date at some point.Academic journal article by Dubois (yes, as in host Elizabeth Dubois) and Gaffney: The Multiple Facets of Influence: Identifying Political Influentials and Opinion Leaders on Twitter. Pages 1261-1264 are especially relevant. They distinguish between so-called "influentials," popular accounts, and others online who are some times called opinion leaders and those people who are more locally influential which, they say, is closer to what Katz and Lazarsfeld described as an opinion leader. Academic journal article by Bennett and Manheim: The One-Step Flow of Communication. In the episode Elizabeth mentions the theory developed here. 

How can we work together to stop the spread of misinformation? This month Canada 2020 held a free public event to discuss the spread and impact of misinformation, and the challenges facing Canadians throughout the federal election campaign. In this episode you'll hear a panel discussion with Kate Gibbs, the Executive Director of Evidence for Democracy, Elizabeth Dubois, Assistant Professor of Communications at the University of Ottawa, and David Moscrop, Author of Too Dumb for Democracy, and Host of The 2020 Network's Open to Debate.

Guest: Elizabeth Dubois. Data and politics have always been intertwined, but in the age of social media we are giving up more information than ever - and political parties are taking advantage of that.

Host: John Michael McGrath, Producers: Colin Ellis and Tim Alamenciak, Technical Producer: Matthew O'Mara, Podcast Intern: Michal Stein, Production Coordinator: Caitlin Plummer, Podcast Manager: Hannah Sung.

The role of online bots in electoral politics, a Policy Options podcast. Online bots scan social media sites and then send out automatic messages to users. Political parties use them to get their messages out. So they have the power to shape public opinion, and they can even have an impact on elections. Fenwick McKelvey from Concordia University and Elizabeth Dubois from University of Ottawa recently wrote about bots for Policy Options. They found that the risks of this kind of digital campaign could soon outweigh the benefits. McKelvey sat down with journalist and McGill University law student Ryan Hicks at our Montreal studio to talk about why political parties should commit to using bots responsibly. Download for free.
