>So you believe that if there was no Cancon laws that the Canadian cultural identity wouldn't suffer? American culture has an enormous influence on Canadians as it is, and I fear that getting rid of things like Cancon would start to erode our identity further. Americans don't force their content on us. The irony is that our own regulatory bodies are the ones seeking to force something on us that we don't seem to want. >Smaller cultures like Canada need to be protected so that they may be allowed to develop. Protected from whom? Themselves, apparently. It is, after all, Canadians who seem to be welcoming American content with open arms. They've shown exactly what they want, via their daily decisions of which kinds of media to consume. And this is even with their options artificially limited by entities like the CRTC.
