An even better example is the Super Mario Bros. movie.

It is 54% that live in urban areas that create the "world as we know it". Many of the rural population are little more then subsistence farmers.
Show written by and for an Americans but filmed here may contribute to the Canadian economy, but they do little for Canadian culture.
It was the number of subscribers:

Estimates of the number of Canadian subscribes are only available from surveys:
I suspect they just want to know how many customers they have, not specifically who they are.
One of the CRTC jobs is to ensure Canadian TV content gets created and we are not stuck with 100% American programming and Canadian culture disappears entirely. If everyone starts watching all their TV on Netflex and similar services, Canadian TV could all but disappear. Most counties other then US have systems to ensure domestic content is produced, but Canada is so close to the US, the pressure far greater.
Movies aren't subject to regulation and Canadian made movies are barely seen in cinemas (and the few that are tend to be based on Canadian TVs shows).
The smartwatch I had was adequate for a calender and shopping list, and newer ones would have a higher resolution.
I had a Sony Smartwatch for a while before it broke. Here are the apps I would like to see/write, besides the obvious notification apps:
Nextbus predictions
Remote control for mythtv
Monthly calender
Google maps with walking route
Weather
Display brief text, like shopping lists
Looks like a lot of these where covered in the Apple Watch presentation.
There lots of things people use their smartphones for that only require a quick glance. They are the kinds of things a smartwatch is suited for.
If the propane is made from CO2 that is absorbed from the air, like plants are able to, then it is carbon neutral.
The fee is (more or less) 1% of gross revenue if you're a cable system.
See section 111 here:
http://www.copyright.gov/title...
(F) If the actual gross receipts paid by subscribers to a cable system for the period covered by the statement for the basic service of providing secondary transmissions of primary broadcast transmitters are more than $263,800 but less than $527,600, the royalty fee payable under this paragraph to copyright owners pursuant to paragraph (3) shall be—
(i) 0.5 percent of any gross receipts up to $263,800, regardless of the number of distant signal equivalents, if any; and
(ii) 1 percent of any gross receipts in excess of $263,800, but less than $527,600, regardless of the number of distant signal equivalents, if any.
the royalties are set by the government, not the broadcasters
--> Is the above true, does someone know this for certain?
--> If so, what would the marginal cost be per user?
One other thing to consider is that Aereo has pretty good software developed right now and if they don't need farms of antenna's with local presence anymore, they could theoretically be located anywhere if they are, effectively, a retransmission service and would no longer need to build out local infrastructure (i.e., which I suspect was one of their larger costs) and could just use cloud type services (e.g., amazon/rackspace) to host their DVR/transcoding/etc. services
How is an air conditioner supposed to know what temperature you want it to be without an Internet connection?
It will make the world a better place if your political opinions are based on evidence and logic.
