If we were to make it too costly for US based companies to advertise would that bolster the “Buy Canadian” trip we’re on. So Ford, Kraft, McDonalds etc can go fuck themselves.

Right?

    Wouldn’t it make more sense for Canadian companies to continue taking money from US advertisers while Canadian consumers stop buying US products?

      Well… yes.

      It’s the profit trail this’d address. Make the measurable cost of sales too high so these carpetbaggers fuck off back to selling to already obese consumers (Muricans).

      Give CDN industry a chance to flourish in the daylight rather thsn the shadow of economically dominant US competitors. Let’s level the playing field.
