When Marc Miller became Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture, he inherited Ottawa's oldest, unfinished file in tech policy: regulating social media. He took office at a global turning point. Australia had just banned social media for kids under 16, with Denmark, France, Turkey, and the U.K. quickly following suit.  The proliferation of AI chatbots added urgency to his new file. Ignored in previous policy cycles, AI chatbots are now embedded in the lives of millions of Canadians. And in the wake of the tragedy at Tumbler Ridge, the risks of these unrelated systems are no longer theoretical. In part two of our series on Canada's landmark new digital legislation, Minister Miller joins us to talk about his bill, The Safe Social Media Act, which restricts platforms for minors unless platforms can prove they're safe and sets world-first rules for AI chatbots. It's the federal government's bid to hold Big Tech accountable. If you missed part one, you can check out our last episode with Minister Evan Solomon on the federal government's plan to bring Canada's privacy laws into the AI era.

The federal government has unveiled the newest iteration of its online harms bill — legislation that proposes to ban children under 16 from having social media accounts, as well as putting new regulations on social media platforms and AI chatbots. When should Canadians expect to see changes? Canadian Identity and Culture Minister Marc Miller joins The House to explain.Plus, the Gordie Howe bridge between Windsor, Ont and Detroit, Michigan was supposed to open this week, until American officials wanted a few more details sorted out. Is it just another pawn in the CUSMA negotiations? Should Canada make concessions to get the bridge open? Political Strategists Marci Surkes and Kate Harrison talk about the latest drama with the United States. And, before the iconic chamber of the Supreme Court of Canada closes for over a decade of renovations, The House sits down with Chief Justice Richard Wagner to talk about the court, politicization of the justice system and the impact of AI on Canada's courtrooms. This episode features the voices of:Marc Miller, Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture MinisterMarci Surkes, former senior advisor to Justin Trudeau and chief strategy officer at Compass RoseKate Harrison, Conservative strategist and vice chair at Summa StrategiesRichard Wagner, Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Canada

Federal Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture, Marc Miller on how Canada's government intends to make the internet safe, and if social media giants like Meta will listen.

Die Kanadese regering het die Wet op Veilige Sosiale Media ingestel om sosiale media platforms en kunsmatige-intelligensie-dienste aanspreeklik te hou en toegang vir kinders onder 16 te beperk. Ouers en aktiviste vra die versterking van kinders se aanlyn veiligheid en ander lande oorweeg soortgelyke wetgewing. Die minister van Kultuur, Marc Miller, sê hoewel bestaande wette kan reageer nadat skade aangerig is, is daar tans baie min om die skade te voorkom:

In the latest episode of The Line Podcast, recorded on June 5th, 2026, Matt Gurney and Jen Gerson begin with reports that Prime Minister Mark Carney has a tendency to raise his voice behind closed doors when dealing with his Liberal caucus. According to reporting in the Toronto Star, the PM may not always be the calm technocrat he appears to be in public. Your hosts cannot endorse a toxic workplace, of course, but they also suspect many Canadians won't be especially upset by the news. After all, they argue, a lot of voters chose the Liberals out of necessity rather than affection, and more than a few people might conclude that after a decade of terrible Liberal management, the former PM's leftovers deserve a real chewing out.This episode is brought to you by the Forest Products Association of Canada. Canada's forest industry is a national economic anchor rooted in hundreds of communities across the country. The Canadian Forest Sector Transformation Task Force was created to chart a path toward a stronger, more competitive, and more resilient sector. That means practical federal action on long-standing priorities: stronger supply chains, better productivity, more homes, and regional resilience. Learn more at FPAC.ca.After that, they discuss Carney's recent efforts to reassure Canada's Jewish community. Both hosts agree the attempt fell short. Matt argues that putting Marc Miller in charge of a new advisory panel feels like a very Trudeau-era response to a serious problem — process instead of action. Jen then raises reports that the Trump administration may consider offering asylum to Canadian Jews. She also notes, to Matt's horror, that he warned months ago that such a possibility could eventually arise. Perhaps, they joke, he manifested it.This episode is also brought to you by BioCanRx. Nearly half of all Canadians will face a cancer diagnosis in their lives, and Canadian scientists are racing to build better treatments. But it's not just the science — it's the logistics of actually getting it to patients.BioCanRx is a federally funded, not-for-profit research network that specializes in moving Canadian cancer immunotherapy from the lab to clinical trials here at home. Since 2015, they've funded sixteen trials and treated more than four hundred patients — all with made-in-Canada technology.So what is immunotherapy? Your immune system eliminates threats every day, including your own cells when they mutate. But sometimes mutating cells are able to evade the immune system — and that's usually when we call them cancer. Immunotherapy supports or modifies your immune system so cancer can't slip past it.Stay tuned this summer, and visit BioCanRx.com to learn more.Finally, the hosts check back in on Alberta after what was, by recent standards, a surprisingly quiet week. Probably won't stay that way for long, though. It never does.Also: Ricky Martin reference!All that and more in the latest episode of The Line Podcast.#TheLinePodcast#MarkCarney#CanadianPolitics#CanadaPolitics#AlbertaPolitics#MarcMiller#CanadianJews#MediaAnalysis#FederalPolitics#CurrentAffairs

We are happy to welcome Traveller creator, author of Agent of the Imperium,  and science fiction reader Marc Miller and Dominick Santa Catterina, of the upcoming Dumarest: the RPG, to the show. In this episode we talk with Marc about his deep history as an SF reader, favorite books, and of course their influence on Traveller. This of course involved the Dumarest of Terra Saga, for which Dominick and associates at Burnt City Games are working on an RPG inspired by Classic Traveller.  You can purchase many great Traveller-related products on Marc's website, Far Future Enterprises.  Our theme music, as always, is from the Speculative Machines Podcast, and is called Cadmium Red.

Send a textWelcome to You Heard it Here Last where we talk about news, you've already heard.I evidently missed this announcement in November of 2025, so when I got the email from Backerkit about an upcoming launch I might be interested in, I was surprised. Traveller 5e from Mongoose Publishing was coming to Backerkit in March of 2026. https://www.backerkit.com/call_to_action/4bb4fe4f-753f-484d-8133-870c7c591797/landing?ref=home-pageMy first thought was they were printing a new edition of Traveller, but then I remembered Marc Miller had produced Traveller 5th Edition in 2013. Of course, Mongoose has taken over publishing, but they are in the 2nd edition…then it hit me like a ton of bricks. It was Traveller for Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition.I'm sure if I tried real hard, I could come up with something more useless, but I gotta tell you, right now I'm out of ideas. What a complete waste.Traveller is an iconic roleplaying game with specific systems that work perfectly in that science fiction world it portrays. Rewriting the entire thing for D&D 5E … Stop it. Just Stop it. I know that 5E is the biggest selling game out there and I know this is just a money grab, but Damit people, open another roleplaying game book.I typically cheer for anything that brings more eyes to our hobby, but this isn't a rising tide, it's a tsunami destroying what's good about independent games and alternatives to D&D.I'm tapping out on this one.Christina, thoughts?[Kick to Christina]Mike[Kick to Mike]You might think after my lead in I would avoid all things Hasbro, but our next article from EN World is just too interesting to pass up. We've talked a lot about AI on our podcast and in Hasbro's latest earnings call Hasbro CEO Chris Cocks addressed the company's use of AI.https://www.enworld.org/threads/hasbro-ceo-says-ai-integration-has-been-a-clear-success.717852/“We're beyond experimentation.

He also broke down how creatives use the tools.Mike, AI has recently become a huge part of your life and after diving into it and embracing it in the workforce you got promoted to COO.

Marc Miller, Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture, and the Minister responsible for Official Languages, joined Aaron Rand on CJAD 800.

Marc Miller is a Mark Carney Liberal cabinet minister — and a holdover from Justin Trudeau's government. In fact, most of Carney's cabinet is. From Mélanie Joly to François-Philippe Champagne to Anita Anand, the same names keep reappearing. It's difficult to take seriously claims that this is a “new” government in any meaningful sense, or slogans like “Canada is back,” when the same people have been running the country for nearly a decade. More outrageous still is the Liberals' ongoing attempt to blame Stephen Harper for current failures — even though his government ended eleven years ago. That argument has long since passed from implausible into absurd. One of the worst holdovers is Marc Miller. It is surprising he remains in cabinet at all, given that his chief qualification appears to have been his personal friendship with Justin Trudeau — including serving as a member of Trudeau's wedding party. That relationship, rather than any demonstrated competence, explains his rise and longevity in power. Today, Miller holds the title of Minister of Canadian Identity and Culture — a disturbing mandate in itself. A minister in charge of defining “identity” should concern anyone who believes such things emerge organically from history, culture, and shared experience, not government decree. The irony is that the same Liberal Party once described Canada as a “post-national” country — more a hotel than a homeland. Miller previously served as Minister of Immigration, where he oversaw a period of reckless and historically unprecedented mass immigration that did profound damage to social trust, public services, and national cohesion. This is the same government that removed Sir John A. Macdonald from the ten-dollar bill, rewrote the national anthem, tore down statues, and casually accused Canada of committing genocide. It is difficult to take lectures on national identity seriously from officials who have spent years dismantling it. Against that backdrop, Miller recently testified before a parliamentary committee and was questioned by Conservative MP Rachael Thomas about “social cohesion.” The question was straightforward and reasonable. In other countries, “social cohesion” has become a euphemism for enforced silence: in China, obedience; in the United Kingdom, avoiding discussion of politically inconvenient crimes for fear of being labelled Islamophobic. What, exactly, does it mean in Canada? Miller's answer did little to clarify matters. He warned of “intense disinformation” and claimed social cohesion is weakened when “falsities are propagated through media sources both legitimate and illegitimate.” That raises an obvious question: who decides which media sources are “illegitimate”? Canadians were recently told, incorrectly and repeatedly, that a mass murderer was female — even described as “a female in a dress” in emergency alerts. This misinformation was amplified by police, politicians, and much of the mainstream media, including the CBC. The state broadcaster went so far as to emphasize pronouns and refer to the killer by first name, as though discussing a personal acquaintance. Was that disinformation? Or, in Marc Miller's framework, was it “social cohesion” — the deliberate suppression of uncomfortable facts in the name of public calm? More troubling still is Miller's assertion that a strong, dominant CBC is essential to Canadian democracy. He describes the broadcaster as independent, despite its consistent alignment with Liberal positions on everything from climate policy to Donald Trump to gender ideology. On no major cultural or political issue does the CBC meaningfully dissent from the governing party that funds it. This is the practical reality of government-subsidized media. As one Liberal MP bluntly told a National Post reporter on X: https://x.com/Taleeb/status/1832480006578028641 “Your paper wouldn't be in business were it not for the subsidies that the government that you hate put in place — the same subsidies your Trump-adjacent foreign hedge fund owners gladly take to pay your salary.” That is not independence. That is power reminding journalists who pays the bills. This authoritarian instinct is familiar. It echoes Justin Trudeau's own worldview — that there is a single, approved truth, known by the governing class, and that dissent is illegitimate. Trudeau has said as much openly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vDfMybczw1k And more explicitly still: https://x.com/AreOhEssEyeEe/status/1758912476572189069 “They don't believe in science or progress and are very often misogynistic and racist… Do we tolerate these people?” Those words were not rhetorical. The Trudeau government arrested peaceful protesters, froze hundreds of bank accounts, and punished citizens for embarrassing the regime. With new censorship laws now advancing, there is every reason to believe the same logic will be extended further. Independent media coverage of the recent transgender mass murder will almost certainly be cited as justification for additional controls on speech and journalism.

Ottawa is one year into its two-year temporary international student visa cap project, and post-secondary institutions across the country are heavily feeling the effects of a limited international tuition profit margin. Former Immigrations, Refugee and Citizenship Minister, Marc Miller, introduced the program of January 2024 which hopes of tightening up any immigration loopholes found within the student visa guidelines, as well as to alleviate housing and healthcare pressures brought on by the influx of students. But halfway through the plan, and cuts to dozens of programs and campuses are now starting to paint a clearer picture of what may be to come. Host Maria Kestane speaks to Gina Lorentz, Professor and Coordinator for Fanshawe College's Multimedia Journalism program and President of the Radio-Television Digital News Foundation for Canada, about what things are looking for students across the province and where the future of local journalism could potentially go from here.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is calling for interparty unity in the face of Donald Trump's threat to impose tariffs on Canadian goods. But it didn't take long for the Liberal-Conservative divisions to appear. So is it still realistic to talk about Team Canada? Two Ottawa bureau chiefs weigh in on Canada's attempt to show a united front against the incoming U.S. president.Next, Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly joins Catherine Cullen to discuss Canada's new Arctic foreign policy, the crisis in the Middle East and whether there's a way to stop Trump's tariff threat before the president-elect takes office in January.Then, representatives and experts of Canadian universities and colleges explain how the federal government's dramatic cut in international student visas will affect their institutions, including whether they need to shave programs. Minister of Immigration Marc Miller and Ontario Minister of Finance Peter Bethlenfalvy also share their thoughts on who's to blame for the funding crisis facing Canadian post-secondary institutions.This episode features the voices of:Tonda MacCharles, Ottawa bureau chief for the Toronto StarStuart Thomson, parliamentary bureau chief for the National PostMélanie Joly, Minister of Foreign AffairsMeti Basiri, CEO and co-founder of ApplyBoardAlan Shepard, president of Western UniversityPari Johnston, president and CEO of Colleges and Institutes CanadaMarc Miller, Minister of ImmigrationPeter Bethlenfalvy, Ontario Minister of Finance

At the beginning of this year, immigration minister Marc Miller said the government was looking to rein in the number of international study permits it would be granting, in a bid to take pressure off the strained housing market. But that's been bad news for the post-secondary institutions for which a significant part of their operating budgets come from tuition fees from international students. Colleges in southern Ontario have been particularly hard hit, with many announcing cuts and consolidations — and there could be more to come.But it's only part of the problem. Alex Usher, the president of Higher Education Strategy Associates, explains the crisis Canadian universities and colleges are now dealing with: the result of years of cuts and a refusal to spend more on our post-secondary institutions.For transcripts of Front Burner, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

On Thursday, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced a major reduction in the number of permanent residents the country will admit over the next three years, saying his government had not gotten the balance between labour needs and population growth “quite right.”In 2025 and 2026, the government had initially planned to bring in 500,000 permanent residents – now, they've set a target of 395,000 and 380,000, respectively. In 2027, that target is 365,000 permanent residents. This signifies a major policy reversal for the Trudeau government – and would mean that Canada's net population is projected to decline by 0.2 per cent per year over the next two years.Marc Miller, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship, joins us to discuss why the government is cutting Canada's immigration targets, and why he says Canadians should trust the Liberals to fix the problem.Questions?

That long-awaited Liberal caucus meeting where a group of MPs asked Trudeau to step down as party leader came — and went. In less than 24 hours after hearing their concerns, Trudeau told reporters that he would continue as Liberal leader. So… Now what? And where does this leave the Liberal Party?

Send us a textWelcome to You Heard it Here Last where we talk about news you've already heard.https://www.enworld.org/threads/mongoose-acquires-twilight-2000-and-2300-ad.707036/Mongoose Publishing is at it again. Recently we discussed that Marc Miller had turned over publishing of the Traveller RPG to Mongoose and now they have picked up the rights to Twilight 2000 and 2300 AD. Mongoose has been publishing 2300 AD under licensing since 2007 and currently Free League has the publishing rights for Twilight 2000. Mongoose reports nothing will change and Free League will continue with Twilight 2000 until the current licensing phase ends.While not necessarily canonical Twilight 2000, 2300 AD, and Traveller all feel like part of the same universe and this seems to open up a huge IP space for Mongoose going forward.Mike, what are your thoughts?[Kick to Mike]Christina, your take?[Kick to Christina]Our next item was a minor if interesting article from Rascal Newshttps://www.rascal.news/oh-captain-my-captain-rpg-simon-and-schuster/The article starts with “On September 24, Simon & Schuster's Adams Media released Oh Captain, My Captain! a Descended From The Queen RPG by James D'Amato. This marks the first time in recent memory that an imprint of the Big 5 (the largest entities in book publishing, which include S&S, Penguin Random House, Hatchette Livre, HarperCollins, and Macmillan) has produced a standalone tabletop roleplaying game.”I guess I have a longer memory, because TSR had a publishing deal, albeit a rather strange one, with Random House in the 1980s and for a long time Dungeons and Dragons was a common sight in traditional bookstores of the day. But, to be fair the low sales of RPGs dropped them from consideration by traditional publishing houses decades ago.This is what I find interesting. The article discusses the possibilities that TTRPGs might once again become a hot product at the traditional publishing houses and how that's a good thing, however, the traditional publishing companies are not in a good place write now.Indie publishing and self-publishing, especially with the creation of Kindle Unlimited have done a number on the traditional publishing companies and they no longer hold the book world in a vice grip. This almost seems like a desperate grab by the Big 5 to gain some market share.Mike, thoughts?

In 1977 Marc Miller, bored with the Chess Club at Illinois State University, made his way to the Strategic Games Club…the rest they say is history.Ok, for those of you that have no idea who Marc Miller is or why the fact that Chess is boring matters I'll go a little deeper.Marc Miller, Frank Chadwick, John Harshman, and Loren Wiseman created the roleplaying game Traveller, that's with 2 L's by the way, in 1977 born out of games at that Strategic Games Club.Traveller is the quintessential sci-fi roleplaying game, building on the science fiction novels of the 1960 and 70's and coming onto the scene just after Dungeons and Dragons and before Star Wars.My first dive into Traveller started in 1983 with the Classic Traveller Starter Edition. I still have the boxed set buried somewhere in a pile of old games. I remember stumbling across it in my friendly local gaming store and being taken by the cover art. Three heroes wearing golden armor with a space ship flying overhead.I had just watched the Return of the Jedi a few days earlier in the theatre so I had to get the game, and boy it did not disappoint.What disappointed me was all my friends. I couldn't find anyone to play it with me. But that was ok, because the character generation portion of the book was so good it was like a solo game all on its own. I made so many characters…or at least tried to make so many characters, a lot of them didn't make it. But we will come back to that.Fast forward a few decades and finally I get to run a Traveller game.It was a blast and if you want to hear all about it listen to our “Anatomy of a Campaign” series.Christina, do you remember the first time you ever heard of Traveller?[kick to Christina]There are a lot of versions of Traveller out there, many of them still being played, and while we might discuss bits and pieces from the other versions, we are going to focus this discussion mostly on the new caretaker of the Traveller Legacy, Mongoose Publishing and their 2nd Edition Version of Traveller.Christina, before we dive into Traveller give us the disclaimer.[Kick to Christina] – We aren't getting paid for this. They didn't give us any games or material or support. We actually played the game, a lot.Now that the official stuff is out of the way, what do you like best about the system?

Welcome to you heard it here last where we talk about news you've already heard.We are starting this week off with some good news.https://www.reddit.com/r/traveller/comments/1f2le2u/mongoose_publishing_now_owns_traveller/?share_id=uyOnyDYBcc2twtg2LBUZi&utm_content=1&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf&utm_source=share&utm_term=22Traveller is a 1977 table top roleplaying game that brought science fiction into roleplaying. Building on the success of Dungeon and Dragons introduced in 1974, Traveller dropped onto the scene just before Star Wars hit the big screen, and boy did it make a splash. Today Traveller is considered a seminal work in the world of table top roleplaying. Marc Miller, one of the creative minds behind Traveller recently announced that Mongoose Publishing will be carrying the torch of Traveller if anything might happen to him. This succession plan for the game was important to Marc Miller and even though Traveller has been published by a variety of game companies and publisher, ensuring the future of this beloved franchise was important to him.And I am very happy to hear this.Christina, I know that Sci-Fi is one of your jams. What are your thoughts?[Kick to Christina]Mike, since I already invoked Star Wars, what do you have to add?[Kick to Mike]Next up in news is another little Kickstarter project you might have heard of.https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/foundryvtt/ember-rpg?ref=724lwvEmber by Foundry VTT.This little project dropped on September 3rd with a goal of 10,000 dollars. In two days, they had already 232,000 dollars. It runs until October 3rd, so this is one to keep an eye on.What is it.Well, Foundry VTT has taken all the updates and lessons they have learned running a virtual table top and put all of those bells and whistles into their own virtual table top system.
