Trudeau passes new law targeting social media!

Such a dumb concept. It's equivalent to the telephone pole having to pay the band to hang a concert poster

Welcome to Canindia!

What did you expect from Fidel Jr.?

Bill C-18 is proving to be…blah blah blah. You never did say what it is proving to be, nor did you ever say what it proved to be.. This is an idiotic youtube video, produced by a ……whatever

So why can't Canadians see or share American links on FB?

Doot u mean doubt ? Bro ur the opps

what you fail to mention is that google owns the advertisement system that all website use meaning the ads that news publications have online aren’t profitable

How do we save our failing news? Put it out of it's misery. It's CBCs own fault that they haven't adapted over the decades. It's time for the rise of independent citizen journalists and down with biased government funded. media.

Only cbc will be left, you know, the Liberal station

I have spent more than a decade just relying on word of mouth… If it is important enough I will hear about it. Otherwise I don't care what happens in the news, I have enough to deal with in my own life. 😛 And I now have you to let me know when something important happens in politics. Besides the news I am exposed to is French. Which I don't understand, so refuse to pay attention to anyways.

Very well put video, couldnt have said it better myself

Canadian freedom is gone…Canadians need to come together man this is just so upsetting 😢 what happened…we blame immigration (it is also a huge part) but if they fix the immigration issues tomorrow.Canada still wouldn’t change GIVE US OUR FREEDOM BACK ALL YOU SEE IS COMMUNIST IDEALS AND PROTECTION FOR SAME SEX MARRIAGE AND TEACHING KIDS TO BE GAY WOW DISGUSTING

I couldn't agree with you more. I used to go to news publications because of social media links. Without the links I cant be bothered. most of the journalism isn't worth it.

A -boo-t 😂😂😂😂😂

I think what they were trying to do was a kind of tax on megacorporations. "All you Googles and Facebooks and Amazons… you're making a ton of profit off of Canadians. So if you want to operate in Canada we're going to charge you a fee." Something like that. But what they ended up doing was some nonsensical roadblock that only encouraged them to cut out news outlets all together. This won't seriously hurt Google or Meta. But it will really hurt the news agencies.

Affirmative action hurts the people who work hard.

Powar! I think many governments want the internet off switch … we tried to give it to entities that didn't have profit margins (Universities), but they are just huge businesses … it was an idea, but new web … FOSTA-SESTA and the like … strangle hold!

l love your shows, BUT journalism is dead. They are fed a note to read. They are told not to investigate. Main stream media is an arm of the elites. And it's more interested in spewing opinions not facts. Epoch Time, RebelNews, True North, and the alternative media is where the journalism is left. Anything MSNBC, America Today, CNN, Fox, Reuters, AP…all trash.

Not surprising to me at all. The Liberal government offers re-education training to those who publicly dissent with their policies. Those who are assigned re-education for voicing their dissent and displeasure with politicians and their policies, have to foot the cost of that training. Sounds a little Marxist to me. It always pays to be cautious of a government's constitution that says, it upholds the right to freedom of speech and expression when followed by the conjunction "but".

Well one reason why they might be doing this too is for the scarily fact that we are inching ever closer to war and global conflict, in that case they will need to control the media and the narrative. It could be a test run for such as well, even though I believe it’s for other unpleasant purposes as well. Just food for thought. Other countries will probably do the same if we go to war.

Absolutely irresponsible. They clearly did not get guidance from a third party without a conflict of interest, otherwise they would have realized that the law is (as I posted on LinkenIn) "a bad law, surely unconstitutional, and injurious to the Internet upon which we all now depend. It is technically dangerous and morally wrong." It is entirely unworkable as law and will be overturned in the courts if not repealed. You can't just choose some website owner you don't like, order them to provide outbound links to another website owner and send the other website owner money as well. It shows how incredibly dishonest and self-interested the media is, and how weak minded and fragile people in the legislature are. I have friends who think Meta and Google are the villains in this piece. They may well be villains, but not in this scenario. In this scenario they are the good guys and they have thus far been wholly reasonable in responding in the only way that makes any sense.

Very similar legislation was put in Australia by our conservative party (Liberal National Party). It both saddens me and comforts me that Canada has an equally moronic government (we can cry together).
