My talk on "Astronomy vs. the Billionaire Space Race" is for the RASC Victoria chapter's weekly astronomy cafe, and is open to the public (though you are encouraged to join the RASC. If you like astronomy stuff they are a great group!)
More info about the location (the Fairfield Community Centre in Victoria at 7pm) and the meeting my talk will be part of is here: https://victoria.rasc.ca/astronomy-cafe/

If you want a preview (or are among the 99.9999% of people who aren't able to watch in person), here's a nicely recorded talk I gave almost a year ago (RASC Toronto uses VDO ninja! Good open-source stuff).
The numbers of satellites and pieces of debris on the ground have been updated, as well as adding a short discussion of the CRASH Clock, but it's all basically the same message: https://www.youtube.com/live/6MDI7rEgb6g
