- Summary:
-
This paper discusses Canada's response to international television programming competition, both directly from signals from the United States that are available over the air or by cable, and from foreign programming exhibited by Canadian broadcasters. Major topics discussed are: (1) failure of government regulation to induce significant Canadian drama, variety, or children's programming prior to the establishment of the Canadian Broadcast Program Development Fund (the Fund) in 1983, which is administered by Telefilm Canada; (2) provision and guidelines for the Fund; (3) economic incentive provided by the Fund; (4)justification of Fund subsidies from television production in terms of externalities associated with the cultural significance of the programming; (5) evaluation of the Fund experience; and (6) lessons from the Canadian experience with the Fund. It is concluded that the Canadian experiences with, and responses to, American and other competition, are becoming increasingly relevant to other countries, given the technological developments that are globalizing the market for television programming.
