… 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.”
