Hey everyone, it's Bonus Dose Day, and sometimes I think I was just born with a horseshoe up my ass. Not literally, I hope they would have caught that when I was a kid, but I delayed this video thinking "ahh, it doesn't matter if I release this one right away", and then Texas goes ahead and makes it even more topical! Yes, a few days ago, Texas forced all adult websites to use age verification, and The Hub said "nah, we'll just block anyone from Texas". Basically, you could replace every time I said "Canada" in this video with "Texas", change the stereotype references, and this video would be just as relevant. I'm sure you never thought you'd hear that Canada and Texas have something in common, AND that it would be that they're both highly conservative, did you? Enjoy!

Canada keeps trying to pass laws that force international, Internet-based companies to comply with their rules, and those companies keep telling them to go away. But that doesn't stop them from continuing to try anyway! In a latest bid to pass a law that's none of their business, the Canadian government is looking to force adult websites to verify the ID of anyone who wishes to utilize their services. Buckley looks at how, historically, people who have fought against adult content have always lost, and what these companies will do instead of complying with Canada.
