It is manifestly incorrect to suggest that a simple decline in investments could 'trigger' government action of such magnitude; this is a naive simplification of governance. Major regulatory decisions, such as the implementation of streaming quotas, are the result of complex and anticipatory political deliberations, not knee-jerk reactions to a cyclical statistic. The idea that an 18% decrease in spending over a given period is enough to provoke a legislative overhaul ignores months, or even years, of lobbying and strategic reflection on cultural sovereignty. In Australia, as in France with the CNC or in Canada, such measures stem from a pre-existing political will to protect the local industry, regardless of short-term fluctuations in spending.
