Dominique Zgarka's Peace Train

By External Source

At birth, we get on the train and meet our parents.
It is believed that they will always travel with us.
Yet, at a station, our parents will get off the train, leaving us alone to continue the journey.
As time passes, others get on the train.
And they will be important: our siblings, our friends, our children, even the love of our life.
Many will resign (even possibly the love of our life), and leave a greater or lesser emptiness.
Others will be so discreet that we will not realize they have left their seats.
This train trip will be full of joys, sorrows, expectations, greetings, goodbyes and farewells.
The success is to have good relations with all passengers, provided we give the best of ourselves.
We do not know which station we will go down to, so let's live happily, love and forgive.
It is important to do so because when we get off the train, we will have to leave only beautiful memories to those who will continue their journey.
Let's be happy with what we have and thank heaven for this fantastic trip.
Also, thank you for being a passenger on my train.
And if I have to go down to the next station,, I'm glad I've come a long way with you.
I want to tell everyone who reads this text that I thank you for being in my life and travelling on my train.

Inside Canada's 'Streaming Tax' Battle

Spotify, Apple, Amazon and others are challenging the CRTC's mandated fee payments to Canadian content funds like FACTOR and the Indigenous Music Office, both in courts and in the court of public opinion. Here's what's at stake.

Some of the biggest streaming services in music are banding together to fight against a major piece of Canadian arts legislation – in court and in the court of public opinion.

Spotify, Apple, Amazon and others are taking action against the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC)’s 2024 decision that major foreign-owned streamers with Canadian revenues over $25 million will have to pay 5% of those revenues into Canadian content funds – what the streamers have termed a “Streaming Tax.”
