Seek a federal investigation of Canada’s online streaming rules

Lloyd Smucker introduced the Protecting American Streaming and Innovation Act to address Canadian digital-trade policies affecting American streaming services and content producers. The bill would seek a federal investigation into Canada’s Online Streaming Act and its requirements for technology and streaming companies.

Context: The passage does not specify what action the investigation would trigger or whether the bill has been enacted. The election guide draws these positions from congressional-office material. It does not establish a returned campaign questionnaire or a newly made campaign promise. Original event dates remain unverified.
