>An agreement that Netflix will invest at least $500 million in original productions in Canada is set to be part of a long-awaited reboot of Canada’s cultural policy.
>Heritage Minister Melanie Joly will unveil the comprehensive overhaul Thursday that will look at everything from the CRTC to how best to sell and promote Canada’s creative work and expand its cultural influence throughout the world.
Is Vancouver the new Hollywood?
Hollywood, as well as most traditional media, are already dead. They pushed too far, are people finally realize they no longer want degenerate ideals forced upon them and their families.

>be netflix
>have soo much debt
>instead produce more content for 4 bn for no fucking reason
this thing is gonna crash and burn faster than a nasa rocket
Does this mean even more numerous leaf shills?
They should put more of that budget into Travelers to make it stop looking so low budget.
Well they aren't going to pay back their debt by stopping production of new shows. People will get bored after watching what they have and unsubscribe.
95% of publicly-funded or produced Canadian content is garbage. Prepare yourselves for seasons upon seasons of schlock like Heartland and Murdoch Mysteries.
t. Leaf
then why didn't they picked up Dark Matter???
Canada's Netflix doesn't have half of what's on US. So they're just trying to get more leafjobbers signing up.
netflix is going to have a financial disaster on their hands soon
Canada is the hill upon which Netflix dies
are they going to revive Jonovision and Street Cents?
MM is comfy. It's shit, but it's comfy shit. It's like a really bad version of Due South or something. Heartland had some nice chicks before they became busted after 25 seasons of the show.

Lol Canada makes Hollywood look like Chile under Pinochet.
Legal issues
For some reason SyFy retained rights to the show's characters and refused to make anything else featuring them OR allow anyone else to
Some exec hated the show that much
>Canada
>culture
There entire identity is based on letting everyone know that they aren't American. Which even they have trouble with, which is why they have laws now to ensure 70% of TV and radio has some connection to Canada.
I'd pay for a new season of Student Bodies if they keep with the 'shows matures in content as the characters age' theme. It would basically be porn and office jobs.
It's based on a comic book, so that may be part of the legal issues.
Comic written by the same guys who produced the show
In fact the six issue miniseries was basically a "drawn pilot"
Murdoch Mysteries is kino you plebeian
that exec should be executed
>dude I'm an atheist and also a divorcee and also I had an abortion that left me barren and also I have lesbian tendencies
>let me spend the next decade ruining the life of a ridiculously devout Catholic guy lmao
for all the
>lol fucking leafs
talk there is something important in this paragraph:
>..."part of a long-awaited reboot of Canada’s cultural policy"
this means that everything is going to be a humongous guilt trip about how sucky it is to be native, gay or black.
You know what would be a cool thing to address in a Canadian tv show? The collective alcoholism this country suffers from. Instead WAAAAAAAAAAH white people were killing natives 2 generations before my great grandparents arrived.
So Netflix will provide bestiality now?
Wow can't wait!
Yeah for some reason I immediately got the impression "Canada's Heritage Minister" is the person who gets paid to shit on Canada's heritage full-time
Like how every fucking public event now begins with an apology and an acknowledgement of whatever shitty tribe is the "rightful owner" of the particular patch of dirt they're speaking on in spite of the fact that the aforementioned tribe probably won that land through the bow and axe against other natives in the first place
- Star Gate TV shows.
- Dark Matter.
- Continuum
- Trailer Park Boys.
- Orphan Black
- Vikings.
- Are You Afraid of the Dark?
- Kids in the Hall.
- Fraggle Rock.
- Andromeda
- Lexx
- ReGenisis
- You Can't Do That on Television
They pretty much have the same good to bad ratio of TV shows that the US has. With the exception that their sci-fi kicks the shit out of US sci-fi.
But that's what Murdoch wants, so who are you to judge?
Leaf here. Does this mean I can get my acting career started? I always wanted to be in show business but never had the money or time to go down to LA.
If they put up all the seasons of The Red Green show, I'll be happy. Reboot too. And it wasn't Canadian, per se, but Sam and Max could come back. People are smart enough to understand Sam now. But Anne of Green Gables is confirmed, so I guess it'll be Wind at my Back after that, then a reboot of the Tudors or some crap like that. Expect alot of period piece shows, like always.
You always could. BC is where so many fucking US shows are filmed. Almost every single CW show is filmed in BC, Supergirl, Arrorw, Flash, Supernatural, etc...
The guy ran halfway to the North Pole to get away from her shit
If she stopped playing her passive aggressive game he'd be married to some other woman with 17 kids like he always wanted
oooh, ouch. Sorry if my fellow natives are being too pushy. Doesn't feel good, eh? At least they aren't taking away your tools, or means to survive....
Maybe Thundercats will get a respawn.
They should pick up Letterkenny so it can finally have the budget and distribution it deserves.
Why are natives sch scumbags? Seriously, out of high school I was super kind to this kid, drove him here and there, watched his back when he got too drunk, and he still broke into my home and tried to have sex with one of my family members in their sleep. Gosh, why could there ever be a bias against you poor, noble savages?
>"Canada's Heritage Minister" is the person who gets paid to shit on Canada's heritage full-time
That's so Kafkaesque
Murodch is pure kino.
I never did anything like that. Stole from Superstore a few times, chocolate bars haha
Are they going to resurrect Leaf Kino?
Europe is also forcing them to invest into european films and shows to being able to broadcast there.
90% will be degenerate shit so who cares
Due South was somehow a very entertaining show. Paul Gross is great.
From my perspective, you're all scared weak cowards, afraid of me on the street when all I'm doing is going to 7-11 for a slurpee lol but I don't think of people like that. I COULD but then I'd be just like them. Fug that.
You forgot all the DeGrassi shows.
Used to love that show.Missed everything halfway through season 2.
Also, sorry bout replying to the butthurted, i got a lil butthurt m'self, my bad.
>tfw no more corner gas
I was surprised on how much i liked this show because Canadians shows tend to be utter shit
Oh great.
It was good. AND it was filmed in Saskatchewan, the second anus, but first armpit of Canada.
>Heritage Minister
fucking leafs are fruits
No surprise here. Canada already functions as a social engineering test site.
>We'll never get anywhere close to the pure kino that was seasons 1-7
>Now we're left with swearnet garbage and actors who have absolutely no self-control without Clattenberg
Don't worry you guys, you're almost a minority yourselves. You'll know in time....then maybe, just maybe we can all grow up a lil.
...
Damn it, it's too early and I just got off graveyard. Replying to stupid shit like a stupid shit, in a stupid shit manner, shit
Corner Gas is a Canadian classic. It's better than the Trailer Park Boys
Corner Gas was enjoyable but it's no TPB.
Is that a charity donation in the hopes Canadian content will stop being trash?
The Cancon standards for radio was always fairly clear and not limited by any political mediation in terms of the artist's content. The CBC has long been more concerned with promoting oppressed points of view than representing the average Canadian that actually pays for the content, thus oppressing them. Local media has been all but eradicated in Canada except for ethnically themed stations in Vancouver (Asian), Inuit locations, & Newfoundland (Downs Syndrome).
>Lol Canada makes Hollywood look like Chile under Pinochet.
this guy gets it
The irony is that under the veil of PC culture the CBC and everything around it is full of Jian Gomeshi levels of nepotism, hypocrisy, & racism.
>Yeah for some reason I immediately got the impression "Canada's Heritage Minister" is the person who gets paid to shit on Canada's heritage full-time
Just look at Trudeau shitting on Canada's involvement in WW2 while apologising for not taking in a group of refugees. We have a 9M monument to the Holocaust but no mention of all our soldiers that died. Didn't Trudeau Sr. ride around on a motorcycle with a Nazi helmet on?
It would be great if Netflix could promote Canadian content without the involvement of Canada's corrupt, partisan, & hypocritically racist culture dictatorship.
>Didn't Trudeau Sr. ride around on a motorcycle with a Nazi helmet on?
Yes he did. He was a retard who ruined the country but he was also a cool retard who ruined the country.
no thanks
t. leaf
There are probably a few shows I forgot. I was just going from memory.
>netflix gets leafed
nice while it lasted
>Not liking MM
I knew Sup Forums had shit taste, but this is too much.
