The Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) has updated its definition of “Canadian content” to expand its list of broadcasting production roles that qualify a television show or movie as Canadian, while saying that artificial intelligence in these roles doesn’t qualify.
The federal broadcast regulator’s new definition, which determines whether a broadcasting production qualifies as Canadian, maintains its previous points system approach. The points system awards points for productions based on “key creative functions” that are performed by Canadians.
