I don’t see this ending up as anything other than the companies effected increasing their prices to cover themselves (and then some) and then the adjusted revenue being taken as a tax and passed directly to the media industry. We’re just funnelling money to executives that will lobby for more money to be funnelled to them instead of them actually making a product that people want to use
Some of that money goes into producing Canadian Content which employs Canadian artists and the broader Canadian arts industry. That’s better then that money going to Hollywood and supporting the American arts industry.
Either way the benefits are just trickling down rather than going directly to artists, but with these laws more money stays local in Canada rather than going to the US.
You are arguing about whether that money should trickle down or be given directly to artists and that is quite frankly, completely irrelevant given that both options here (the rates increasing or the rates not increasing), don’t effect that.
