'Cause we can do that if you’d prefer. It’s not as if … Well, let’s move to a specific comment to finish that sentence.\n\n> “this burdensome framework unfairly targets global streamers with requirements that directly violate Canada’s obligations under the United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA),”\n\n… the USMCA matters any longer since the USA seems to think it can take a shit all over it every time the world’s oldest toddler gets colicky and throws a tantrum. The USMCA isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on, nor the bits it’s stored in.
