AGP Executive Report
Last update: 11 hours agoWorld Cup Shock (Canada): Morocco ended Canada’s 2026 run with a clinical 3-0 Round of 16 win in Houston, scoring after the break and then sealing it late as Azzedine Ounahi struck twice; Canada’s early pressure couldn’t turn into enough chances, and the co-hosts became the first host nation eliminated. World Cup Stakes (France): Kylian Mbappé converted a second-half penalty to send France past Paraguay 1-0 and set up a quarterfinal with Morocco. IP & AI (Canada-adjacent): Japan’s Supreme Court shut the door on AI as a patent inventor, ruling the “inventor” must be a natural person—an issue that will ripple through how Canadian creators and publishers think about AI-driven work. Publishing & Culture (Canada): Northern BC Writers Association’s July fest in Prince George includes a horror-writing workshop (July 6), plus genre sessions and launches aimed at local writers. Film/Streaming (Canada watchers): Reports say Diljit Dosanjh’s Punjab 95 was heavily cut, renamed Satluj, and released on ZEE5 with little promotion—sparking renewed debate about censorship and marketing.
