That's the point. He wants to stop American films from being made outside the US, such as in Canada which is the setting for many Netflix productions.Next he will want approval on content. And there you go Hollywood only produces state propaganda by 2027.

│ Yes, that is the point of his tariffs. A lot of Hallmark and Lifetime movies are filmed in Canada, maybe most of them.
