Good on you for asking for a source. We should all be in the habit of doing that more often👍

Carney effectively confirmed all of this in his recent speech too.

    It looks like the two issues are algorithm promotion and support for Canadian content on the production side.

    I honestly feel kind of bad for Netflix. They're just a stupid greedy corporation and I guarantee you that they are unhappy to be at the center of an international trade war and now face of American cultural-imperialist hegemony in Canada. They are going to lose subscribers because Trump is a fucking moron.

    And, all in all, Netflix has been pretty good about importing global content to the US; I don't know how satisfying a villain they can play in this drama.
