The poop will hit the fan when Canadians realize that this Bill could increase their digital costs by as much as 47%, and limit their access to all kinds of foreign services, including things like BBC news.

Is this any different than the cost of maintaining our cellular service or our gasoline?.......also among the highest in the world. I guess we have to pay for our social services somehow is the way I look at it. But I do like reading Michael Geist's articles, he is the digital content guru.

These aren't social services though.
Could you go a bit more in depth? I don't think I understand your argument.

This bill is terrible, just like the government that dreamed it up.

Yes, I hope when the CPC takes power again that this bill is wiped out, for the good of all Canadians and the good of mankind. The fools that created this bill deserve to be swept from power, and never allowed back again.

C10 didn't make it through the Senate before they adjourned for the summer.

What will the lying sack of crap Justin Trudeau do now that he can't control the internet in a run up to his ill-timed election plans?

Tabernac!

yes

It won't though.

You'd think it would hit the fan already because of the oil/gas prices and relationship with the Carbon tax. People still aren't outraged about the concept of a "tax to save the Earth"

We're 11th on the list of Global CO2 Emissions (and that doesn't even take into account illegal dumping, water pollution, overfishing, etc... for destroying the planet) and yet somehow people are fine with us being taxed to offset our emissions.

Even though the 3 biggest polluters (US, India and China) emit more than 36 TIMES the amount we do... we're supposed to make up for that?

No outrage over that, so I don't expect anyone to care if their favorite websites get banned, blocked or they have to pay a nominal fee to access stuff online.

You've described us Canadians well. I'm of the same opinion.

Senate did not pass C10 before breaking for the summer. Excellent.

It appears that Liberal senators are not enthusiastic to send their party into a potential summer election with the ‘stinking albatross’ of Trudeau’s censorship bill C-10 hanging over them. No doubt it will be back in some form if Canadians are foolish enough to keep the Liberals and their fellow leftist enablers in power.

"The recipe for a successful dictatorial regime would be incomplete without internal, silent policing of thought and action among citizenry. Creating a nation of subdued minds was forever at the top of the communist agenda."

The C-10 bill is definitely one of many "stinking albatrosses" hanging around the Liberals pencil-necks. The Liberals are on the wrong side of history here for sure.

One can tell a lot about a person by the role models they choose, and Justin and the Liberals have picked some nasty characters in Mao, Fidel and Stalin.
