Reader Feedback on "Bouncing Off the Satellites"
At the risk of splitting hairs, although I am a proud Canadian, a longtime Vancouverite, and a big fan of the CBC radios, I must take issue with the notion that we of the Great White North have unlocked doors. That idea comes from - or was at least re-enforced by - a scene in Michael Moore's 'Bowling for Columbine'. It was laughable filmic hyperbole. This is a great city that's growing quickly and trying hard to get things right but we have our fair share of crime, pollution, and other ills common to settlements large and small all over the world. Not to rain on anyone's parade though. Loved the article. Keep up the good work.

i fell love with the cbc again with Radio 3, when it put out the award-winning [now defunct] arts and culture Flash webzine[@archive.cbcradio3.com]; plus innovative radio programming. Like the demise of the publication, the CBC will have R3 take off terrestrial radio sometime in March. This makes me angry because I don't have satellite radio and I don't have any future plans to get it. Sure, I can still grab their podcasts but I am really disappointed that they pulled it entirely... for me it is the BEST THING on radio, the other radio station formats just don't compare. (and also the web magazine was the best publication I've ever read, bar none).

"By law, Canadian satellite stations are mandated to play eighty-five-percent Canadian content. The law is called CanCon" I think you are being unclear here. The law is that if a station wants to call itself a "Canadian channel" then it needs to play at least 85% Canadian music. Satellite radio is required to have a certain number of "Canadian channels". But this doesn't prevent, say, the All Elvis channel. Regular radio is not required to play eighty-five-percent Canadian content, but instead 35%.

This story reminds me of my favorite station, radio1190.org, a small, independent AM and webcast station broadcast from a basement room of the University Memorial Center at the University of Colorado at Boulder. Check it out!

I immediately downloaded the last four podcasts and subscribed. How many reasons does Canada have to give us to expatriate before we just do it?
