Original Note:
The CRTC is requiring online streaming services to contribute 5% of their Canadian revenues to support the Canadian broadcasting system. This represents a major new tax on streamers which is passed on to consumers. When business costs more, prices rise. https://www.canada.ca/en/radio-television-telecommunications/news/2024/06/crtc-requires-online-streaming-services-to-contribute-to-canadas-broadcasting-system.html
