69% Informative
The companies are fighting an order from the federal broadcast regulator that says they must pay five per cent of their annual Canadian revenues to funds devoted to producing Canadian content, including local TV news.
In December , the court put a pause on the payments estimated to be at least $1.25 million annually per company.
The case will be heard by the Federal Court of Appeal in Toronto .
The court hearing comes as trade tensions between the U.S. and Canada have cast a shadow over the CRTC 's attempts to regulate online streamers.
The regulator launched a suite of proceedings and hearings as part of its implementation of the Online Streaming Act .
Foreign streamers have long pointed to their existing spending in Canada in response to calls to bring them into the regulated system.
