Anything that gets people off Facebook is in the best interest of the people

  Most Canadians are obsessed with American news anyway. I wouldn't be surprised if the bulk of people barely notice. If I was an American/Euro/South American news org I'd be staffing up my Canadian journos. Any org out of reach of the backroom dealing Ottawa private school clique can probably hire some local freelancers and fill the void by the end of the year.

  I mean, sure Facebook has its bad points, but anyone who thinks that this is true clearly has no idea how hard it was to stay connected to so many people pre-Facebook. And keeping up on those connections really does have value.

    I dont use facebook anymore and think life is better without it so I dont even care about the merits you listed. Even still, it doesnt mean we should legislate this opinion on others. Regardless, Canada isn’t protecting people from facebook. They didn’t ban news sharing, they just wanted to give their media companies a cut.
