The 15% “TAX” headline is COMPLETE LIE. A misrepresentation - READ THE ARTICLE. It is NOT a TAX but a requirement that streamers spend 15% of Canadian revenue to PURCHASE or CREATE CANADIAN CONTENT. This is a Canadian content law. NOT A TAX.
But, I stream the red green show every day.
The Canadian tuxedo would have gone extinct if it wasn’t for this law.
Can we also add a surcharge so I never have to see an ad again?
Would that include Stargate SG-1? It was all filmed in Canada.
Canada is good about supporting local artists. I love that local artists must be played on the radio.
Oi you have a streamy license?
Rest of the world needs to do this too.
…and a 25% tarrif like our steel and aluminum.
Reciprocity.
Elephant in the room is who has recently bought up a bunch of streaming services ;)
