Anyone gullible enough to be fooled into thinking the GOP was the party looking out for the working man or middle class Americans hasn't been paying attention.

I hope the CRTC doesn’t back down. I realize rules and regulations no longer stand for anything in the US but we are not them.

Foreign streamers (like Disney and Paramount) are trying to argue with the CRTC that they shouldn't have to comply with our Canadian content rules.
