    None of this has anything to do with trying to force people to pay for simply linking to content on the internet, which is what this stupid law does.

    Re taxes, of course they don’t pay income tax in Canada. Why would a US company pay Canadian or income tax in any other country? That’s beyond stupid. As I said, WHEN THEY OPERATE HERE, e.g. employ people or sell things, then yes they do pay Canadian taxes. They have Canadian subsidiaries for these things and those all obey all our laws and pay our taxes.

    Also, I’m not “defending” anyone. I’m explaining to you how taxes work as you don’t seem to understand.

      Because they’re profiting from the work of Canadians and no they don’t have subsidiaries, they don’t even pay taxes in the USA, I linked to articles about it in another comment.

      Edit: Oh lol, that was the comment you were replying to? Freaking hell, you couldn’t even be bothered to check the links?
