I think we need to go even further and avoid American culture and practices. Tbh that is their biggest export, via the entertainment industry; a recipe for a way of life that guarantees their enrichment and your impoverishment.
Agree 100%. That’s their soft power, trying to heavily influence people with their entertainment to see things through their values, or lack thereof. I know as a kid growing up, it was basically all US shows, but I was too young to make that distinction between US and Canadian content. I think there should be an investment to make and distribute more Canadian content, so we’re not constantly being bombarded with US content.

The American entertainment industry’s been on a steep decline these past few years so it’s kind of a problem that solves itself.
