I've noticed that a significant majority of makers on YouTube that I watch are Canadian. It's easier to bootstrap a channel when you don't have to pay out of pocket for insurance or emergency care. Americans won't take that risk so they start channels while they have another job and most don't make it to a sustainable size to quit the regular job.

Isn't it fair to say that Native Americans didn't consider land to be "owned" by anyone? What colonialism (and agriculture) did was assert control over land that was previously thought to be communal.

The tragedy of the commons is a capitalist invention. Shared resources have all been managed effectively until the point where they become considered private resources.
