    The irony, of course, is that many Hollywood trade groups claim that laws like this are explicitly (ha!) illegal restrictions on international trade. Imagine if every country did that or expanded it and suddenly you could only watch 1/2 of regular shows on TV if they were produced in other countries... "Okay, you can have a BBC channel, but half of the shows have to be made in Canada."

    Not sure this is the battle they are going to use to fight the war...

      So the CRTC wants more "beaver shots" in porn movies? Can't say I blame them.

      Pot. Kettle. Black. The Peterbilt of Natural Selection is VNG (Vehicle Non Grata) in California due to having an older engine. It's base-plated out of state, and due to my being Canadian all my runs have to either start or end in Canada (which means no intrastate runs in California). They try regulating interstate commerce (federal jurisdiction according to the U.S. Constitution), and violate NAFTA chapter 11 (prohibits laws which impinge on profits of foreign companies), then complain about illegal restrictions on international trade?

        You know what there is a cards against humanity combination perfect for this: When I am elected Prime Minister I shall create the department of: Syrupy Sex with a maple tree.

            So the demands are 'We want it to be genuine Canadian beaver'?

              iirc, many of the more stunning Playboy models over the years were Canadian, and I for one would certainly enjoy a broadcast or two that might feature a Quebecois accent, so I don't understand why these stations are having a problem fulfilling their mandate.

                    Canadian porn: that would be one Strange Brew indeed. Also would give new meaning to the line from that movie "up yours, you hoser."

                        Canadian produced porn? Will they make a new version of Sgt. Preston of the Mounties?

                          Guess they want more maple leaf wrapped Mounties rolling around in maple syrup?
                          Figers are vicious I tell ya. They crawl up your leg and steal your belly button lint.

                          I'm a case study.

                            If it had Mounties, wouldn't it be gay porn? After all, the Mounties have a reputation for always getting their man.
