Why Canadian Streaming Services Offer Smaller Selections

Anyone can plainly see simply by browsing Netflix Canada's title selections in the Canadian marketspace that they, indeed, have a much narrow offering to the Canadian public than Americans have available to them.  In fact, this is such an obvious fact that there are so many how-to guides, explanations, available for free, on how to purchase a very cheap VPN, and with it access the American version of Netflix instead.  The company itself has many reasons and public statements about this difference, including MPAA and RIAA rules and similar justifications about territorial licensing agreements and so forth.  And while all of this is very valid and plausible, it in no way is the real reason according to some.  Personally I do not agree with the licensing explanation as I will attempt to explain.

How Lauran Hates Women Prettier Than Her

As a psychotherapist I met Miss Gray somewhere at the end of winter 2017.  She was having terrible relationship issues and as an expert who trained Mystery himself I thought I could help the poor soul find love, or at least to get laid often enough for her not to complain so much and eat up my time that I felt better spent feeding the psyches of Fortune 500 executives.  Boy, I never realized how amazing my advice was until I read her blog post before and after our session.  The things she believed at first were mind bogglingly insultive not merely to the men whom she saw as untrained monkey-like animals, but also to her own sisterhood, girlfriends, mamas, divas, whatever the princess world likes to be addressed as these days.
