In regards to censorship, all the above being said, while I do think we're definitely a more relaxed nation when it comes to saying fuck on television and showing titties, the question I ask is, how does that make us a more advanced country? Are we more evolved because we don't care what kind of crap our children are exposed to on television. Should we be recognized because we 'embrace our sexuality' in a European kind of way and shamelessly showcase it on CTV?
I really don't think we're polar opposites to the US when it comes to censorship. I think we could stand to benefit from some of their restrictions and guidelines.
Now, I'm a fiercely patriotic Canadian, one who'd fight tooth and nail to forever be independent of increased U.S. influence, but I'm also quite weary of where unchecked liberalism in the media can lead us.
