Unless the stick is a perfectly rigid body, the pressure you exert on the end of the stick would only travel the speed of sound within that body. The other person would be long dead before they felt anything.

If the paper is unrolled at the speed of light, you are shit out of luck. An object moving at the speed of light shrinks to vanishing size. This is assuming that the entire length of the tp will roll off the spindle in no time and will be travelling at the speed of light.
