Censor-gate Bill For Canadians, but not Americans

I found this pretty surprising. Americans applying for Canadian tax money to make TV or films are not subject to the Minister’s censor hammer (should Bill C-10 pass). It makes me wonder if it was sloppiness, or something sinister. Given the actions of the Conservatives, it really could be either, but my bet is on sinister.

I guess the Globe is covering the protest because if CTV can’t stop this, then they’ll be out money while their American competitors can pick up the slack on our dime. Our culture and heritage sure is safe in Conservative hands.
