EARLY ACCESS: YouTube vs Canada (Bill C-11)

Hey everyone, it's Early Access day! I've had a lot of people in video comments and in private messages ask me my opinion on "this Bill C-11 thing you guys have up there", and recently I was treated to an ad campaign ran by YouTube to petition Canadians to stop it. SO, I thought "well maybe I should finally talk about this, me being a Canadian who creates content". And if you're like "eh, I don't really care about Canadian stuff", the part of this video you might enjoy is the fearmongering from YouTube, trying to scare Canadians about something that's not a real issue, while they pretend they actually care about creators. Enjoy!
One of those Canadian stories you may have kinda heard of elsewhere in the world: The government is looking to pass a bill that would potentially force streaming services to adhere to similar rules that regular TV broadcasters have to adhere to when they broadcast here. YouTube has decided to use this opportunity to run a bizarre ad campaign where they're trying to scare Canadians into signing a petition, called "Keep YouTube Yours", claiming you won't see all of your favorite content anymore, and Canadian content creators will be shown to the WRONG AUDIENCES! GASP! Buckley educates you on what the bill actually says, and why Big Momma Suz's fearmongering is ridiculous.

This should be call the "Dé-Bill" (french for dumb) They should help Canadian local online broadcasters to be able to get more market on the international scene instead, but no, let's try to control what we cannot..... Also Youtube going CNN all the way!!! This is a case of Dumb and Dumber right here 🤪

2023-01-28 03:09:47 +0000 UTCI'm not going to reupload this to change that, but I understand why someone might feel that way. However, it does say "All that AND over 150 exclusives..." I'm referring to the exclusives as the ones that can be watched. On top of that, the image displays which ones are available now and which ones will be soon. If someone subscribes in February, they're guaranteed to see them. If they were planning on subscribing to watch everything in like a day and then unsubscribe? You'll understand why I'm not overly sympathetic to that.

2023-01-27 22:39:46 +0000 UTCYou might wanna think about rephrasing your standard intro bit. You're naming actual videos of yours and saying "subscribe to my patreon and watch them right now", even when some of them aren't released yet. You wouldn't want people disappointed cause they subscribe for something and it's not there.
