A Modest Proposal for Canadian Television

... from Steve Janke.
Do you want to know who makes the best Canadian content being broadcast on television today? Beer companies. They really understand Canadians.

They produce content for profit that is funny and engaging and true.

And they pay to put their content on the air!

I don't know there is enough beer commercial content to fill a schedule, but we ought to move in a direction in which clever profit-motivated Canadians are allowed to benefit from creating content or delivering it.

Multiple beer-commercial channels!
He is not being entirely facetious and has been pressing lately on how the (CRTC, an independent body of the) gubmnt has imposed a broken business model on private Canadian broadcasters.
