Canadian Broadcasters Seek New Internet Regulation

An anonymous reader writes "Michael Geist's weekly Toronto Star column reports that the Canadian broadcasting community, including broadcasters, copyright collectives, and actor labor unions, are all calling on Canada's broadcast regulator to increase its regulation of the Internet. Some groups want sites such as YouTube to be subject to Canadian content requirements, while the broadcasters want to stop U.S. broadcasters from streaming television shows online into Canada."

Dear Canadian Radio and Television Commision:

The internet is neither radio, nor television, nor Canadian, so keep your regulatory hands in your pockets.
