*Non-IFRS Financial Measure
Readers are cautioned that "Adjusted EBITDA" and "total bookings" are measures not recognized under IFRS. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as earnings before interest income, taxes, depreciation and amortization, share-based compensation, restructuring costs, impairment charges and other non-recurring gains or losses. Management believes Adjusted EBITDA is a useful measure that facilitates period-to-period operating comparisons. Total bookings includes the full amount of cash received from new domain bookings, renewals and other related services. Whereas, under IFRS, the Company records revenue from domain booking and renewal fees on a straight-line basis over the life of the contract term. However, the Company's management believes that "total bookings" provides investors with insight into management's decision-making process because management uses this measure to run the business and make financial, strategic and operating decisions. Further, "total bookings" also provides useful insight into the Company's operating performance on a yearly basis. "Total bookings" do not have standardized meanings prescribed by IFRS and therefore may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other issuers. Readers are cautioned that "Adjusted EBITDA" and "total bookings" are not an alternative to measures determined in accordance with IFRS and should not, on their own, be construed as indicators of performance, cash flow or profitability.

Trump's new steel tariffs will cause ‘mass disruption', Canadian industry warns
U.S. President Donald Trump's heightened tariffs on steel and aluminum coming into his country will 'create mass disruption and negative consequences,' Canada's steel industry warns. Trump said on Friday that he will double the tariffs on steel and aluminum imports to 50 per cent. Catherine Cobden, president and CEO of the Canadian Steel Producers Association (CSPA), said the steel industry in Canada and the U.S. were highly integrated and tariffs would hit steel producers on both sides. 'Steel tariffs at this level will create mass disruption and negative consequences across our highly integrated steel supply chains and customers on both sides of the border,' Cobden said in a statement Saturday. The tariff increase will take effect Wednesday, Trump said in a Truth Social post shortly after he announced the new rate for steel imports at a rally with steelworkers in Pennsylvania. Story continues below advertisement 'Our steel and aluminum industries are coming back like never before. This will be yet another BIG jolt of great news for our wonderful steel and aluminum workers,' Trump wrote.

'It is vital that the Government of Canada responds immediately to fully re-instate retaliatory steel tariffs to match the American tariffs and to implement as quickly as possible new tariffs at our own borders to stop unfairly traded steel from entering Canada,' she said. She said a trade war between Canada and the U.S. would 'have unrecoverable consequences' on the North American steel industry. 'The new government has already consulted on possible new measures. The time for the Canadian government to act is now,' she said. Trump announced the increased duties on steel during a rally at U.S. Steel's Mon Valley Works–Irvin Plant near Pittsburgh Friday evening, where he criticized countries for 'dumping' their 'garbage' steel products into the U.S. at a lower cost. 'We are going to bring it from 25 per cent to 50 per cent the tariffs on steel into the United States of America, which will even further secure the steel industry in the United States,' Trump told the crowd. Story continues below advertisement 'Nobody is going to get around that.' In March, Trump put 25 per cent tariffs on steel and aluminum imports to the United States.

New FCM report urges bold federal-municipal partnership to unlock Rural Canada's economic potential Français
OTTAWA, ON, May 31, 2025 /CNW/ - At a pivotal moment for Canada's economy and communities, the Federation of Canadian Municipalities (FCM) has released The Future of Rural Canada —a bold roadmap to unlock the full potential of rural communities as essential partners in national prosperity. As global uncertainty reshapes economic priorities, rural leaders are ready to drive solutions that diversify trade, strengthen local infrastructure, and build a more resilient, inclusive economy for all Canadians. Rural Canada is a cornerstone of national prosperity—rich in resources, innovation, and untapped potential. With modern infrastructure, reliable connectivity, and updated fiscal tools, rural communities are ready to drive growth in critical sectors and expand Canada's global trade footprint. But unlocking this potential requires a renewed, results-driven partnership across all orders of government—because when rural communities thrive, the entire country moves forward. "FCM is proud to present its vision of Canada's future, and how this can achieve safer and more resilient communities with all orders of government working hand in hand," said Neal Comeau, Chair of FCM's Rural Forum. "This report contains the missing key to unlock long-term prosperity, thanks to the work of dedicated municipal elected officials across the country." As the federal government begins a new mandate, the report highlights key challenges— such as public safety, aging infrastructure, and major gaps in digital connectivity—and offers practical solutions to help rural communities thrive. Key recommendations include: Expanding broadband and cellular service to meet the needs of the 21 st Century rural economy. Strengthening partnerships with rural municipalities is key to ensuring federal infrastructure programs reflect rural realities—unlocking economic potential and improving access to markets across the country. Elevating rural policing and reforming the bail system through intergovernmental collaboration is essential to ensuring safer, more resilient communities across Canada. Grow rural housing supply by empowering municipalities through a renewed federal-municipal partnership that aligns tools and infrastructure to deliver results. Advance climate resilience by partnering with rural municipalities to strengthen infrastructure, protect communities, and support long-term sustainability. Recognizing all communities, including rural and urban areas, as essential partners in delivering national priorities, alongside provincial and territorial governments. This is the first national rural report of its kind in seven years — grounded in the voices of rural leaders from coast to coast to coast. It calls on the federal government to work with rural municipalities through a National Prosperity Partnership to unlock rural economic potential, fully connect communities with reliable internet and cellular service, and ensure safety and strength in every corner of the country. As Canada modernizes how municipalities are funded, rural realities must be front and centre. A renewed fiscal framework must deliver equitable support for all communities—because rural Canada is not just part of the solution, it's essential to building a stronger, more resilient future for everyone. The Federation of Canadian Municipalities is the national voice of municipal governments, with more than 2,000 members representing more than 92 percent of the Canadian population.

As 2026 FIFA World Cup looms, CRTC dispute between OneSoccer and Rogers drags on
As the one-year countdown to the 2026 FIFA World Cup looms, a fight to open the door to a wider TV audience for Canadian soccer drags on. On one side is OneSoccer, the subscription streaming service that carries Canadian national team games as well as the Canadian Premier League and Canadian Championship. On the other is telecom giant Rogers Communications Canada Inc., which has refused to carry OneSoccer. In March 2023, the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunication Commission (CRTC) ruled in favour of OneSoccer, saying that Rogers, by refusing to carry OneSoccer, 'has given an undue preference to itself and to other services comparable to OneSoccer, and has subjected OneSoccer to a disadvantage.' The CRTC directed the two parties to submit 'by no later than 11 April 2023, proposed remedies for resolving the finding of undue preference and disadvantage.' Two years later, nothing has changed other than the case's paper trail has grown exponentially. 'Delays such as these are devastating for new independent programming services, such as ours,' OneSoccer said in a February submission to the CRTC. 'OneSoccer is spending millions of dollars this year to produce our channel, and we have very little revenue coming in.' OneSoccer remains available as a streaming service and as one of the channels provided by Fubo, also a subscription service. Telus cable subscribers in the West can also access it. Scott Mitchell, owner of OneSoccer's parent company Timeless Inc., as well as chairman of both the Canadian Premier League and Canadian Soccer Business, is 'perplexed' at the delay, saying the ruling was 'very clear.' 'Clearly Rogers has being doing what they can to delay that … It's been with the CRTC for several years now and clearly it's taken far too long,' he said in an interview. 'We have a home World Cup on the horizon and we clearly have a growing soccer audience and ecosystem. And this issue should be dealt with quickly.' Rogers declined to make a spokesperson available, issuing a brief statement while referring a reporter to past company filings. 'We offer our customers a wide variety of popular and premium sports programming from multiple leading content providers,' the statement said. 'For those who want even more soccer content, they have the option to subscribe to OneSoccer as a stand-alone streaming service.' As a result, Sunday's high-profile CONCACAF Champions Cup final between the Vancouver Whitecaps and Mexican powerhouse Cruz Azul is available only to OneSoccer and Fubo subscribers in Canada. 'It's disappointing that not as many Canadians are going to be able to watch the match as there should be,' said Mitchell. 'Because clearly there is an audience for it.' Mitchell reports OneSoccer subscriptions are up 40 per cent this year. But a larger audience is out there. Rogers, in the wake of its merger with Shaw, controls about half the linear TV audience in Canada, Mitchell points out. Rogers says there are 'valid commercial reasons' for refusing to distribute OneSoccer, saying the channel has 'limited appeal to Canadian consumers.' OneSoccer's audience is small other than for Canadian national team games, it argues. Rogers also notes that other major cable providers — including Bell, Cogeco, Videotron, Eastlink, and Sasktel — do not currently carry OneSoccer's linear television channel. Rogers has offered to show some of OneSoccer's programming on Rogers On Demand and on the OneSoccer app on Ignite TV. The two have partnered in the past. In 2021, Rogers Sportsnet carried OneSoccer's broadcasts of Canadian men's World Cup qualifying games, agreeing to split advertising revenue with the proviso there be no OneSoccer branding on the programming. In its submissions, Rogers has also argued that Timeless was 'under the control of a non-Canadian entity' when it filed its CRTC complaint, referencing foreign-owned Mediapro. It argues 'Canadian ownership and control' is a 'foundational tenet of the Canadian broadcasting system.' Mediapro was OneSoccer's production partner until the two parted in a legal dispute, since resolved. OneSoccer argues that while Mediapro 'ran day-to-day operations and provided other services for OneSoccer, this was done on behalf of and under the direction of Timeless. 'At all times Timeless retained the authority to make strategic or organizational changes. Therefore, the service was always controlled by Timeless.' Canada's upcoming games at the Canadian Shield Tournament are being shown on TSN as well as OneSoccer. While Mitchell's group owns the rights, he said it was happy to work with Maple Leaf Sports and Entertainment, which organized the event. But such deals are rare. 'To this day, we've not been offered a single penny of investment for any of the media companies in Canada to carry any of the matches,' said Mitchell. Canada's games in March at the CONCACAF Nations League Finals were carried by both TSN and OneSoccer. Michell said OneSoccer, which produced the games itself, did not get a rights fee. 'Unfortunately we've been pushed into, at times, doing deals that are very economically harmful to us. But we do feel a responsibility, particularly on the national team games, to get the games distributed as far and as wide as we can. Unfortunately giving away the content for free is just not economically feasible in the long term.' 'We appreciate TSN's willing to work with us on it but those arrangements are economically not feasible in the least.' While companies like Rogers don't like being told what to do, OneSoccer consultant Laura Mellanby believes Rogers' resistance is down to the bottom line. Cable providers are primarily willing to launch their own channels and work with inexpensive options, she argues. In contrast, One Soccer is a live sports channel with an expensive production budget. Mellanby, who has worked for both Rogers and Bell, points to Willow, a cricket-themed channel carried by Rogers, that takes feeds from others rather than produce games themselves. 'Production is very expensive, especially sports production. And you can only simplify it so much. You can't do a single-camera coverage of a soccer game.' If Rogers were to carry OneSoccer, it would pay the service a monthly fee negotiated on the basis of the number of subscribers. Rogers would then mark their fees up, to recover its investment. 'Cost is always a problem,' said Mellanby. But she argues that the shared risk of carrying a sports channel with high production costs also comes with a shared reward — especially with a channel featuring a sport 'that is in a pivotal moment in its history in this country.' 'A good investment, if you ask me,' she said. Weekly A weekly look at what's happening in Winnipeg's arts and entertainment scene. Mellanby says OneSoccer has had 'really productive conversations' with Bell about distributing the channel. But she says the rest of the industry is waiting to see what happens with the CRTC case. 'Nobody wants to spend any money … This is not a charity, it's a business,' she said. 'There needs to be a revenue stream.' Canada Soccer, which clearly wants to expands its audience, is understandably watching with interest, although CEO and general secretary Kevin Blue declined comment citing the ongoing CRTC case. — This report by The Canadian Press was first published May 31, 2025.
