Trailer Park Boys Want More Canadian Content
2008-04-19 14:47:00 Rob Wells (Ricky from the Trailer Park Boys), is asking that more Canadian Content be shown on television. At a CRTC (Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunication Commission) meeting he said that his show would never have been aired had it not for the old laws forcing a percentage of programming to be Canadian. These laws have since been clawed back which has canceled other shows like Cold Case.Radio stations are also forced to play a percentage of Canadian music on their station per day. This is why you can still hear classic Celine Dion or Bryan Adams when listening to todays biggest hits.I love a lot of the Canadian content that is out there, but most of it simply does not compare to big budget shows like CSI or 24. The only Canadian show I try to watch faithfully is The Border and once in a while Corner Gas. It is pointless to force Canadian content on people if the shows are not worth watching in the first place.While they are in the middle of making changes, they can consid...
