One of the report’s proposals, drafted by former telecommunications executive Janet Yale, specifically suggests requiring all companies that deliver "audio, audiovisual, and alphanumeric news content" to Canadians be regulated by the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission or another body, through a licence or registration.
Among those recommendations is a requirement for streaming companies to contribute to the production of Canadian content by applying a levy or requiring they allocate a portion of revenue to the cause. The tax model has been popularly coined as the "Netflix Tax," but Guilbeault says the two concepts are different."It’s about fairness.
He said the goal of generating more Canadian content remains unclear, given the record success the Canadian film and television sector has seen in recent years. Conservative MP Michelle Rempel Garner, who holds the title of shadow minister for industry and economic development, shares this perspective and voiced her concerns in a statement following the release of the report.
Putin approves! Media must be state controlled. All news contrary to doctrine must not be allowed.
how about forcing no anti free speech/free press laws at all?
Start with making Netflix and Amazon pay taxes.
If the rules aren't for everyone, why have them? Discriminatory.
