You should read my reply to the other commenter. I'm taking a view that is about giving all Canadians the right to free speech and to be heard by other Canadians. Not one that is about the consumer and for them to have the most interesting and entertaining content at the cheapest price. That means that if Canadians are looking to broadcast a message or values or some of their history and culture or any idea, either through a news report, an opinion piece, a talk show, a story told as music or a movie, etc. Well they should be able to do so without having to win the free market and outcompete everyone else even foreign broadcasters or content makers. That means, reserve them a little bit of "air time" to give their message a chance to reach other Canadians. This is their right to free speech, to be heard and be considered as Canadians by other Canadians without intermediary controlling their narrative or financial and other interests playing into it. You don't have to make all of it just that, 60% or 70% can still just be free for all free market pure consumer driven of what makes money versus what doesn't. But to reserve a fraction of that, like 30%, for Canadians looking to reach other Canadians through broadcast I think that's a great thing as a society and we need to make sure there are ways for them to do so that are protected by our institutions. And that's also why sometimes some of those programs will even get grants, to help them produce the content. It's about preserving people's right to have a voice in our society, even the poors.
