Canadian music is under attack. The United States has hiked visa fees for Canadian musicians to shocking levels - up to $5,000 just to play a single show south of the border. This decision is more than just a financial burden; it’s a direct threat to the future of Canadian music, independent artists, and our cultural survival.In this video, Randall Arsenault breaks down:How new U.S. visa fees are crushing Canadian musiciansWhy cross-border touring is now nearly impossible for indie artistsThe impact on Canada’s music industry, culture, and economyWhy the next Drake, Celine Dion, or Shania Twain may never get discoveredHow this connects to a long history of the U.S. exploiting Canada, from tariffs to cultureThis isn’t just about money - it’s about Canadian identity, art, and freedom of expression.
