The political information landscape is being reshaped as social media influencers are increasingly at the heart of changes in how news is produced, how campaigns are run, and how citizens engage with politics.

In this live episode of Futureproofing Canada, host Jennifer Ditchburn moderates a panel with leading researchers Elizabeth Dubois, Colette Brin and Arturo Arriagada. Together, they explore the opportunities and risks political influencers present for journalism and democracy, from changing ideas of credibility and expertise to questions about transparency, regulation and the growing power of digital platforms.
