Canadian Bill 10 C - No rest for The Leaf

So you thought Canada couldn't be more cucked, Chinese leaf cuck government is passing this bill to monitor and regulate content that is "misinformation" To any flightless bird stuck in that China owned and mudshit infested land of the leaf. The law is vague as all hell much like bills in EU and US.

When this shit gets passed it could affect kiwi leafs. I'm not a lawfag and I won't larp as one, I'd appreciate any predictions speculations from any lawfags and get to the clauses of this shitheap.

Doomer inside inside me after inevitable commie takeover, this bill will not serve interests of the leaf.

By the way "Global News" is owned by CCP, so I refuse to use it as a source.

Misinformation is really the golden card the elites been waiting for to reduce what's left of free speech to zero. It's the right amount of appeal to normies who've been grown on the idea of "experts" knowing everything, without realising the fact checkers are corporate entities who'd happily word or misconstrue arguments to get their way.

This is the link to its status. I don't know when the third reading will be held but it's going to be in the near future. When that is done they will vote and we will find out if it passes. The senate just confirms whatever the fuck the house of commons does so there's no hope there.

Canada has an organization called the CRTC, kind of similar to the FCC, that determines what is allowed to go on the public airwaves.

One of the CRTCs rules is around Canadian Content. So if you own a radio station in Canada, something like 10% of the songs you play have to be by Canadian artists. The idea is to stop the airwaves from being totally dominated by popular American music, given our proximity to the US.

Now, I think those laws are retarded. but I do understand the point of not allowing people to use the public airwaves to shout nigger over the radio over and over.

So the government is trying to sell bill C-10 to the people as a means to allow the CRTC to put rules in place governing content provided to Canadians by companies like Netflix similarly to the current rules they are allowed to put in place for traditional TV and Radio broadcasters. It also allows the federal government to collect HST on subscriptions to streaming services.

So the bill is stupid to being with, but that's not why people are freaking out.

The government says the bill is not intended to regulate user generated content and is intended to keep companies like Apple, Spotify, Netflix and Amazon in check. However The bill is written in a way that gives the CRTC discretion when deciding what content to exclude from regulation. It also put the onus on companies streaming video to apply for that exemption or face a fine.

So for example, what if the CRTC decides Tik-Tok is not exempt? Does Tik-Tok have to regulate all videos uploaded by users to meet CRTC standards or face a fine? Will smaller companies not want to go through the rigmarole of playing grab ass with the CTRC and just block streaming to Canada altogether. Do you really think, for example, BitChute, Trovo or Dlive are going to fuck around with getting CRTC certification? They're just going to block their content in Canada.

It's not a big deal to someone who knows how to use a VPN, (it's kind of a joke, actually,) but your average user does not know how to use a VPN.

I don't think text specifically falls under the bill, it's specifically streaming media, so a site like Kiwi Farms would be OK anyway for now.

Don't be mistaken though, this is not a SJW communist takeover thing. This is about making big telecom in Canada happy. They've been after this kind of thing for years and years.

Consider this, another thing the CRTC does beside regulating what gets broadcast is deciding who gets to operate cell-phone networks and the like. The CRTC does not allow outside telecoms to compete with Canadian ones, which leads to Canada's notoriously high cell-phone and internet prices. What I'm saying here is the CRTC is in Canadian big telecom's back pocket.

We have a handful of huge telecoms here in Canada, the biggest is Bell, others include Rogers, Telus and Shaw. Bell is an ISP, they own a cable sports network called TSN, they own a nation-wide broadcast network called CTV, they own a cell-phone and landline network, they own a bunch of specialty cable channels, they own a radio network, they own their own streaming service called Crave TV, they have a cable and satellite TV service, etc. These telecoms are immensely powerful in Canada, something along the line of how powerful big tech is in the US. When you stream something from Netflix, or even free content from Youtube, Twitch, Trovo, Bitchute, etc, it hurts these big powerful companies that own everything in Canada because it enables you to entertain yourself without watching their TV networks or radio stations or their cable or satellite TV services. When you use an illegal stream to watch something they have the Canadian broadcast rights for like hockey, or WWE of Game of Thrones, it really sticks in their craw and they've been trying to shut that down for years. It's true that they are the ISPs as well, but that's just a portion of their business, they want to sell you an internet subscription and a cable TV subscription.

This bill is about making big telecom in Canada happy by essentially making non-regulated streaming illegal in Canada.

*Edit* Here's a good FAQ about it.

I mean if the US government can't keep 4chan(nel) down, what makes Canada or China think they can?

They kinda have though. There's a reason cuckchan is so insane about purging anyone using a VPN.

I don't get why though, isn't the whole point of an anonymous image board supposed to be just that? Why ban VPNs and use tripcodes that the defeat the purpose then?

It's not looking good. The NDP and Bloc may support Bill C-10 helping the Liberals pass it. My country is fucked. https://thepostmillennial.com/signs-point-to-canada-internet-censorship-bill-becoming-law

4chan is operated by the US government now. 4channel is run by Hiro and his janny cultists.

That doesn't explain why the hugbox nature of channel is also invading 4chan's /pol/ and /b/ boards unless the jannies are pulling double duty on both sites.

Remember when Europe was embroiled in the bloodiest series of wars in human history for more than thirty years because every single state wanted state-enforced unilateral opinions regarding the church? Remember when persecuted minorities with illegal opinions got on rickety boats and sailed across the most vast and terrifying ocean they knew to escape the charnelhouse of Europe and be free in the New World?

I remember.

People are still rolling around with unpinned Super Vs, I doubt this will have any teeth either.

Calm down and use a VPN. Maybe one day you can flee to a more free country like Saudi Arabia.

If anyone had any doubts that all this was about appeasing Canada's telecoms, the Liberals recently revived policy that would allow them to force ISPs and other providers to block websites hosting copyrighted content. This is an entirely separate thing from Bill C-10.

Now I know why the "Nuke Canada" meme exists. And now I want it to actually it to happen.
