... which was exactly my point.

Canadians can already get the news. The fact that only the big U.S. tech companies have effective news #aggregation that attracts Canadian #eyeballs is an extremely strong indicator that Canadian news orgs have failed in this respect.

Hence, an indictment of Canadian news orgs, not U.S. tech companies.

Why the hell haven't the Canadian orgs I listed #cooperated to launch a Canadian #news aggregation site? It wouldn't even be expensive.
