  • CBC-TV Vancouver Heading Backwards on Cancon Mandate Review Needed to Put CBC Back on Track
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 29 June, 2006 CBC-TV Vancouver heading backwards on Cancon Mandate review needed to put CBC back on track Toronto – The current senior management of CBC has turned back the clock almost 15 years when it comes to presenting Canadian programs during prime time on CBC- TV in Vancouver, according to new research about what’s on TV released today by the broadcast watchdog group Friends of Canadian Broadcasting. “This is further evidence that the current management of the CBC is adrift with no vision. It’s time for Canadians to have their say through a CBC mandate review the government of Canada should launch quickly,” Friends spokesperson Ian Morrison said. A “Canadianization strategy” adopted by previous CBC management teams resulted in a steady increase in the presentation of Canadian programs during prime time on CBC-TV between 1990 and 2000. “CBC-TV’s success at shedding foreign programs from its prime time schedule through the 1990’s has been almost completely undone by President Rabinovitch and his senior management at CBC,” said Friends spokesperson Ian Morrison. According to Friends’ research, CBC-TV’s Vancouver prime time schedule in the Spring of 2006 featured 4.5 hours of foreign programs every week during prime time, compared to 5.5 hours in 1990. CBC-TV Vancouver prime time broadcast of foreign programs during Spring 6 k 5 4 3 2 Hours per wee per Hours 1 0 1990 1998 2000 2002 2004 2006 “These data are consistent with the recent decision by CBC management to bump The National from its usual time slot on Tuesday nights this summer to make way for a simulcast American reality show,” Morrison said.

  • 20 February 2020 Mr. Claude Doucet Secretary General Canadian Radio
    20 February 2020 Mr. Claude Doucet Secretary General Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission Ottawa, Ontario K1A 0N2 Broadcasting Notice of Consultation CRTC 2019-379 Submitted electronically: CRTC Intervention Comment Form Dear Mr. Doucet, 1. This is the submission of ACTRA in the matter of the renewal of the licences of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation/Société Radio-Canada. ACTRA wishes to appear at the public hearings to present its views, to address matters raised by other intervenors and to engage with the Commissioners. 2. ACTRA brings to this process the perspective of over 25,000 professional performers working in the English-language recorded media sector in Canada. For more than 75 years, ACTRA has represented performers living and working in every corner of the country who are pivotal to bringing Canadian stories to life in film, television, videogames, sound recording, radio and digital media. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 3. ACTRA is strongly supportive of the CBC. ACTRA is encouraged by the CBC’s most recent efforts to keep itself relevant in the digital world, including a robust website and the launch of its streaming service, Gem, and to reflect the needs of a richly diverse and scattered population that speaks many languages. ACTRA fully supports CBC efforts to achieve gender equality. ACTRA urges the CRTC to require the CBC to provide detailed financial and other information about all facets of its operation and programming to allow Canadians to track the CBC’s progress against these, and other, objectives. 4. ACTRA believes the CBC can and should do more, particularly as we deal with the shift to online on-demand consumption of cultural content and the continuing erosion of the traditional broadcasting model.

  • How Is Rush Canadian?
    Rush and Philosophy 2nd pages 3/11/11 1:56 PM Page 287 21 How Is Rush Canadian? DURRELL BOWMAN Given Canada’s relatively small population (twenty-one million in 1969, thirty-four million in 2009), many—but certainly not all—of the nation’s more ambitious musicians have pursued at least some of their career activities in the US and other foreign parts. Rush mainly demonstrates “Canadianness” by combining such British and American influences as progressive rock, hard rock, and indi- vidualism. However, the band has also included more specifically Canadian references across its long career. CanCon The Canadian government implemented specific content—or “CanCon”—regulations in 1971, and broadcasters were then required to include certain percentages of Canadian material. For music, at least two of a song recording’s four main categories of Music, Artist, Production, and Lyrics (“M-A-P-L”) must be “Canadian” according to citizenship or location. The interpretation of this changed after 1991, due to a “scandal” involving Bryan Adams failing to qualify as Canadian because of co-writing certain songs, such as “(Everything I Do) I Do it For You” ( Waking up the Neighbours and Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves , both 1991), with such non-Canadians as Mutt Lange and Michael Kamen. (Spelling the word “neighbours” in the Canadian way apparently didn’t help.) The outcome is that even though Shania Twain similarly co- wrote the songs on Come on Over (1997) with her then-husband Mutt Lange and did not record any of this music in Canada, her album and its songs by that point qualified as Canadian.

  • Canadian Humour
    Canadian humour Canadian humour is an integral part of the Canadian Identity. There are several traditions in Canadian humour in both English and French. While these traditions are distinct and at times very different, there are common themes that relate to Canadians' shared history and geopolitical situation in North America and the world. Various trends can be noted in Canadian comedy. One thread is the portrayal of a "typical" Canadian family in an on-going radio or television series. Examples include La famille Plouffe, with its mix of drama, humour, politics and religion and sitcoms such as King of Kensington and La Petite Vie. Another major thread tends to be political and cultural satire: television shows such as CODCO, Royal Canadian Air Farce, La Fin du monde est à 7 heures and This Hour Has 22 Minutes, monologuists such as Yvon Deschamps and Rick Mercer and writers, including Michel Tremblay, Will Ferguson and Eric Nicol draw their inspiration from Canadian and Québécois society and politics. Another trend revels in absurdity, demonstrated by television series like The Kids in the Hall and The Frantics, and musician-comedians such as The Arrogant Worms, Three Dead Trolls in a Baggie and Bowser and Blue. Satire is arguably the primary characteristic of Canadian humour, evident in each of these threads, and uniting various genres and regional cultural differences. Humber College in Toronto and the École nationale de l'humour in Montreal offer post-secondary programmes in comedy writing and performance. Montreal is also home to the bilingual (English and French) Just For Laughs festival and to the Just for Laughs museum, a bilingual, international museum of comedy.
