Unfortunately, that 5% fee means Spotify prices are going up 10%

Sure. That just means that Canadian consumers of Spotify will be indirectly subsidizing Canadian artists.

If I remember something kn my econ 101 class, they're going up 2.5%, because taxes are not entirely pass to the consumer, they take a part of the company earnings too.

Sure but then they pay more taxes. Increase in price means more revenue which means more taxes. It’s just a circle.
