I got nominated in the Credit The Creators newsletter! 🎉

I submitted my latest video last week, and I was absolutely delighted and honoured to have been one of the four creators selected for a poll for next week’s Featured Creator! This was my most ambitious video yet, one that I was very nervous to release due to the subject matter, so I couldn’t be happier with the engagement and support it’s been getting! 😄💚

Thank you so much to ⁠@jjjacksfilms‬ and his team for picking me, and best of luck to the other three creators chosen! If you’d like to vote for me, subscribe to the Credit The Creators newsletter and find the poll for Week 29 (Voting is for two days only, so make sure to get your vote in ASAP)!👇

It IS very odd that these guidelines aren't on the Universities Canada website!

@knu @chartier #fairdealing is way better than #fairuse at least in Canada. You ought to read the Canadian Supreme Court's CCH Judgement.
