On radio by forcing the stations to play 30% "Canadian Content". Canadian content is laid out by a circle divided into 4 sections with the letters MAPL. They stand for Music Artist Producer Lyrics. In order to qualify for "Canadian Content", at least 3 of these must be Canadian. It's possible for Celine Dion, for example, to not qualify for "Canadian Content" rules if she sings a song written by an American and recorded in Vegas.
On television, by forcing the TV networks (or stations) to play a minimum of Canadian made hours during "Prime Time". Although I'm at a loss for the percentage (I once knew), this accounts for the crappy Canadian shows that you often see. Instead of requiring the stations to carry a percentage of dollars spent on Canadian productions (which would raise production values by making less in number but higher quality programs), they regulate it by number of hours.

Why is Canadian content important?
When Canadian Content was devised, it was very controversial, and for many people, it still is, even if the CRTC (Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission) had what they thought were good reasons for creating it. When top-40 radio took over in the late 1950s, many radio stations changed over from big band and middle-of-the-road music to playing the hits. But for the most part, the only hits that got played were either American or British. A few Canadian artists were able to break through, but not many. Even in Canada, Canadian artists had trouble getting airplay. So the CRTC, in 1971, decided to take action, to make sure that the playing field would be even and Canadian entertainers would be able to compete. As the CRTC saw it, they were saving the Canadian music industry, by mandating that Canadian radio stations had to play a certain amount of music by Canadian artists (whether the song was written by, produced by, or sung by a Canadian, the aim was to make sure each station's playlist had the right percentage of "Canadian Content"). While some stations embraced the idea, many more were upset, since they wanted to be free to play the hits, and most of the hits were not Canadian. But the CRTC refused to budge. As a result, more Canadian artists and writers finally got their music heard on radio, and the Canadian music industry benefited. In that regard, Canadian Content was important, since it helped to launch the careers of performers who might otherwise have been ignored. But to this day, some stations believe such rulings are unfair, since they seem to force a station to play songs it would not otherwise play.

With taxes and laws. Taxes are collected from the people and the government and our elite decide which arts and entertainment are supported.

Why do you need the CRTC?
The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) is essential for ensuring a diverse and competitive media landscape in Canada. It regulates broadcasting and telecommunications to promote Canadian content, protect consumer rights, and foster innovation. By enforcing standards and guidelines, the CRTC helps maintain a balance between public interest and commercial interests, ensuring that Canadians have access to quality communication services. Ultimately, the CRTC plays a crucial role in shaping the media and telecommunications environment in a way that reflects and supports Canadian values and culture.

What is the crtc of Canada?
The Canadian Radio-television Telecommunication Commission. Officially it regulates and supervises the Canadian broadcasting and telecommunications systems. But it does so much more. It sees itself as the official censor when it comes to acceptable Canadian culture, "protecting" Canadians from ideas the CRTC has determined they need protection from. This includes what radio or TV stations they listen to or watch. They have openly said they want total control over Canadians access to the Internet, only the difficulty of doing so stops them. They also keep profits up for certain companies, companies with connections to Canada's elite. This is why Canada has some of the highest, and very often the highest cell phone costs in the world. The CRTC often see's itself above the law, in particular the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and has long ago outlived what ever part of it's mandate made sense when it was created. Only the Canadian elite and their supporters want to keep it as it is, for obvious reasons.

Does bell express vu get Super Bowl commercials?
In 2008, Bell ExpressVu tried to air a couple of US feeds in the 800 channels, but got their wrists slapped by our beloved CRTC!...As of Jan. 2009, it is my understanding that Bell TV must simultaneously substitute all US commercials with Canadian ones for all their SD and HD signals nationally, and that Canadian subscribers NOT be given access to the American commercials. Period. Thanks again, CRTC!...Thus, either get some rabbit ears or wait until they appear on the internet!
