Totally reasonable...if you disagree, then you are saying that anyone can take your music..then put it on line to monetize it..and is entirely free to do so without compensating you, the author

C18 forces companies like Netflix and such to create content in Canada. Think analogy of Autopact....you want to sell cars to Canadians, commit to making some of them here...simply ensures that some of the money LEAVING Canada comes back ...again, totally reasonable..they pay no income tax, and the HST charged is paid by the Canadian resident....

If you are against them both, ...that is fine...but it is not about censorship...and if you heard or read that, it most likely came from those with most to lose here.
Google has basically claimed absolute authority over the WWW, and they're obviously politically/financially biased. Hmmmm... I guess this boils down to "Who's regulating the regulators?"
