Not to mention that America steals about 90% of Canadian jobs, by this same logic.

Hey, I love as much as the next guy.
This particular fight is of interest to me mostly because it blows a hole in the MPAA's lame claim that piracy hurts the crews on film production.
The truth is out there. (a quote from a series shot in Canada, eh?)
