but citizens aren’t willing to pay for news in large enough numbers to fund it

Because there hasn't been a domestic high quality news source for decades, it's all clickbait and opinions. Even the CBC's homepage is at least 1/3 clickbait titles and misleading thumbnails, CTV's homepage is worse, why would anyone want to pay to be so blatantly manipulated?

For Canadian news I will frequently use foreign news sources like the BBC, they have crappy clickbait articles as well but they have less skin in the game here and seem to put less of a bias on their Canadian reporting.
