MEASURING OUR CANADIAN CONTENT

Regulatory requirements for Canadian content on television are specified by the CRTC, which sets conditions of licence for ICI Radio-Canada Télé and CBC Television. For the whole broadcast day, a minimum of 75% of Canadian content is expected. For prime time, a minimum of 80% of Canadian content is expected. Both measures are averages over the entire broadcast year from September 1 to August 31. As shown in the table below, in the previous two full broadcast years, ICI Radio-Canada Télé and CBC Television exceeded the CRTC's Canadian content conditions of licence/expectations, both over the whole day and in prime time.
