… More and more in Canadian broadcasting, the consumer is in
charge. BDUs and programmers must be able to respond to the
evolving expectations, tastes, and demographics of Canadian
viewers. In order to meet the challenges in the years ahead,
above all licensees will need to have the flexibility to react
quickly and creatively to the opportunities and challenges they
encounter, and not be burdened by detailed or unnecessary
regulations.”
from CRTC Notice of Public Hearing 2007-10, paragraph 11
