I say everyone in Canada should cancel Netflix! If there is a Netflix show they want to watch there is always the seven seas.

The U.S. practices cultural imperialism; without the tax Canadian media production would be at an inherent disadvantage, as platforms like Netflix would simply treat it as an extension of the U.S. market to the detriment of content featuring Canadian perspectives.

I cancelled when my mom couldn't use my account anymore. We live 5 blocks apart and she's on a fixed income. I had an account from the early 2000s, when they were mailing DVDs to you, and they lost me when they got greedy. Now I just sail the seven seas. Everyone should cancel, especially since they're raising prices again.

Yes

I canceled my subscription, and while i'm all patriotic and shit, the reality is Netflix sucks.

Plenty of other countries have implemented something very similar ... Canada should hold its nerve and get this in place. Of course there's going to be a bit of pressure not to do it, but so what?

Micheal Geist is, frankly, really impressive

Haven't touched a streaming service outside of Deezer for music in about a year now, but everything that pisses of the US is worth it. Want to show your shit in our country? Pay for the privilege.

But also Netflix is actual shit now so the subscription isnt actually worth the constantly rising prices.

The best investment I can give to my kid is saving for his education. The second is taking care of health and nutrition so I’ll be around for a long, long time.

And the third will be teaching him about whatever the Arr stack will become in a decade or so. And that nobody owes allegiance or fair play to corporations.

Plex ftw
