Yet another Canadian community newspaper chain is going to court under our bankruptcy laws, but again it has nothing to do with it going out of business. As Marc Edge details, this time, it is more a legal power play to force its sale to largely American interests over the objections of its minority owner.

    Isn’t Canada, as well as Latin America, subjugated under US imperialism? Like no shot, Canadian industry is so dependent upon the US it’s not even funny.

    Yeah, this really sucks. I had been using the Nelson Star as a source since I read about them refusing anti-abortion advertising but judging from the usual effect of American investment companies buying up Canadian media, that sort of stance wont be standing long. On top of my just plain not being interested in being told about my country from a source subject to American interests.
