Market Wire, April, 2008
The www.ocanada.tv website launched last April 15 suggests answers to these questions and many others. The site advocates lively, high-quality television, surveys the current state of Canadian television, and looks at the possibilities for Canadian television in the 21st century: it can and should be contemporary television that meets Canadians' expectations, showcases our talented artists and production people, and develops in synergy with new technologies.
The www.ocanada.tv site is divided into four fact-filled sections covering television production, distribution, broadcasting and regulation in Canada. It also gives an overview of what is happening in the rest of the world.
Each of the four sections contains three subsections: "Did you know," which provides information on the current state of Canadian television; "The new digital environment," which surveys the opportunities created by digitization; and "Building a new world," which discusses ways to bring Canadian television into sync with the rest of the world and promote the creation and distribution of Canadian content.
The www.ocanada.tv site, sponsored by Quebecor Media, one of Canada's largest media organizations, seeks to draw public attention to the fabulous potential of Canadian television in the 21st century.
