Draft regulations released by the government Friday outlined for the first time how it proposes to level the playing field between Big Tech and Canada's news media sector, and which companies it will apply to.

Hi! I need all Americans watching Skinnamarink to understand. This is what they are referring to

Sultans Streets

 I’m not a fan of rap so it might surprise you to find a couple of cds by The Streets on my shelf. I have original pirate material (2002) and a grand don’t come for free (2004).
