Idk what point you’re trying to make, but at issue here is that journalism is being starved to death by sites like facebook that suck up all the profits and attention but don’t provide any of the service that journalism provided. That’s bad for canadians. This law may be the wrong way to fix this problem, but to talk about rules and principals and analogies without considering the actual consequences is pathological.

We’ve got no sharing news on facebook here now. If nothing is done, this is essentially where we’ll be in a handful of years anyway.
