I've been passively looking for your channel for 2 years now... probably could've googled "yelling canadian metal sound engineer" but never got around to it.

I love this channel. Glen you are a breath of fresh air every morning. I'm an electronic dance music producer in the main but I do love rock/ metal and other genres but what I love most about your videos is that they are no nonsense, cut through the bs, straight to the point but extremely educational at the same time. I really hear you on this video and completely agree with your solution. Keep up the good work. I sincerely hope your channel doesn't get affected as it is a staple part of my mornings with incredible content for which I'm grateful for.

I'm a week late in watching this video. Great way of putting the situation for those of us that are not following politics as closely as we should. One thing I've learned in the last 40 years, is if you give politicians too much power, it's always bad for the rest of us.

Growing up on the US side of the NY/Ontario border, most radio that was available was Canadian. Through stations like CKLC in Kingston, and CHEZ 106 in Ottawa, I was lucky to be exposed to great Canadian artists like April Wine, Kim Mitchell, and the band I've seen live more than any other, the mighty Tragically Hip. I may have missed out on these guys otherwise. However, these are different times and the web has taken over as terrestrial radio is in its death throes. I really enjoy this channel and Toronto based Dave's World of Fun Stuff. For that matter I like most things Canadian. I hope this legislation doesn't have the negative effect you're concerned about. Keep up the good work. Cheers. BTW, Gordon Lightfoot is in my top 3 favorite Gordons. The others are Howe and, well, I'll let you guess the other one.

As a US viewer of the channel, and someone very familiar with broadcast history, when I saw the "debate" (or really, the lack thereof) on these broadcast bills in Canada I immediately flashed back to studying the Canadian content laws and got super worried for all of Canadian KZread - I just don't see how they can do what they want with it without completely screwing it up for you guys. And some of my favorite channels (yours included) are Canadian - not just music, comedy ones like Ryan George and Julie Nolke. Shit, even WatchMojo (as spotty as they can be) are Canadian. And here in my house, the most important Canadian KZread stuff is the stuff my 5-year-old loves - Super Simple/Skyship Entertainment, who fought the bill but unfortunately was basically ignored. Here's hoping you guys are left alone to do your jobs and keep making the amazing content you make. Thanks for all of it, and best of luck!

Great rant Glenn! As a fellow Canuck, I salute you! You are absolutely right, I click on videos that interest me, not "oh look, a maple leaf video". Keep on nailing them to the wall!

1980 - 1984 I worked in college radio, CFRU in Guelph, and CKRW in London. 33.3% Canadian content. It was a bit of a pain, but in the end I discovered some fantastic Canadian stuff besides the usual stuff that people listened to.

What is ironic, is that this video was perhaps the best storytelling you have done on a camera ever. I seriously hope they don't fuck this stuff up. Seeing also that on X, formerly known as Twitter, they have completely redacted all News articles for Canadians due to stupid laws and their enforcement. I also think facebook did the same.

You killed it! So well said! Thanks so much for what you do, I love your channel and had no idea you were a Canadian from Windsor! I am Canadian as well but watch your channel because I like it, not because it is demanded of me...

I, a Kansas, not so much headbanger, really appreciate your content, and refusal to pull punches! Creators like you enrich the entire world. Governments could, but sadly don't. Thank-you Glenn!

There's always the Bob and Doug MacKenzie route. I may be showing my age a bit, but when the CRTC decided that SCTV, a show that was set in Canada, shot by a Canadian crew, and had a writing staff and cast that was over 50% Canadian lacked sufficient Canadian content, the creators combined as may negative Canadian stereotypes into a couple of characters as they could think of. Fortunately, they were talented enough that those characters, Bob and Doug, became hilarious and among the signature characters of the show. Their first appearance, however, did have an overlay about how they were being presented to comply with the Canadian minimum content regulations as they were written.

Thanks for speaking up. There are so many destructive examples of government regulation. Politicians legislate on emotion, and are terrible at anticipating the unexpected harm their regulations cause.

Can they block a creator's access to uploading to YT? Can't you just tell them where they can shove whatever 'rules' they want to place on Canadian creators?

We have something similar stupid over here in Germany. If you have a certain amount of viewers you need a (word by word translation) „Youth Protection Officer“ basically someone who makes sure that your content is PG13 and if that’s not the case makes sure that no one under 18 can watch your content. You also need a Broadcasting License from our federal agency as soon as you have 20000 Viewers, and this can cost several 10k.

Turns out that I as an American am subscribed to more Canadian creators than I thought (you included). Which proves your point that good content gets clicks no matter where it comes from. I really hope this works out for the best 🤞🏽

Floridian music producer here! love you and Andrew content! your solutions are awesome too wish they'd do that here!

I just emailed the local fédéral MP. All Canadians need to do the same. Laws can be repelled.

As a German, the way politicians refuse to acknowledge that they have no idea how the internet works reminds me of Axel Voss who was the main man behind the infamous article 13 which could have destroyed the internet. But thankfully, since it was deemed impossible to put into action it was never fully realized.

In this case, my impression is that the one who has no idea what's going on is Glen. Why would this decision about the Canadian KZread recommendations INSIDE CANADA have any international implications for the Canadian channels? Maybe I'm wrong, I don't know, but it doesn't get explained in the video really... As far as I can tell, the only way this would destroy Canadian KZread internationally is that KZread would retaliate and hurt Canadian channels in every country. This seems far-fetched to say the least. Would it cause any problems for Canadian channels inside Canada? Probably, but it's a relatively small market and the english language makes the Canadian content so easily accessible internationally that they will lose, if anything, some Canadian viewers?? Again, I don't know what he's afraid of but maybe I didn't get what he's saying.

Ack. I hate it when assholes in government get a case of the clevers and start fixing something that's isn't broken. Is there anybody who we can email and annoy to assist in this situation?

I am so tired of people trying to control every thing. I try not be sour, but damn the hits just keep coming.

Wow, that title actually isn't clock bait. I'm subbed to every Canadian musical KZreadr you listed and I didn't know they were Canadian. They just make his content. Proving your point, I hope you get the heating you need because we don't need an entire country to have their content buried by their politicians thinking they know what's best

I think if all Canadian youtubers unite this will surely stop

They tried, it’s already law. Our only hope is that a different political party gets in and revokes the law.

the CRTC maintaining its "gatekeepers of stardom" by government mandated monopoly status while being stacked with rogers telus bell execs is their own special interest.....dictating who will be a star and shape canadian culture in their own image......they didnt give it up 25 years ago when it was obviously doing worse than nothing....now theyre choosing to double down on new media

Did you vote? Did you vote for Trudeau?

YES. Teach actual AV skills, teach technical/vocational skills. The job market has changed, and I wished I had those options in school. We can do better for the next batch. The funny thing is Canadian Contant is already naturally being promoted - I didn't realize samurai guitar was a Canadian KZreadr until this video and I was already watching him along with Steve Terryberry and Glenn. I'm sure there's other KZreadrs I watch that are Canadian that I haven't figured out yet. edit: I have been corrected to add Amanda the Jedi and Phelous, so there you go.

Teaching of social media ethics: Glenn, I shit thee not, that is the single best idea I have heard in ages. Social media's toxicity has reduced public discourse to the lowest common denominator across the spectrum of public topics. Productive, positive channels like yours, Guitar Max, Rationality Rules, and others that I won't get into right now (because, you know, politics) are voices of information and civility in a wilderness of mean-spirited shit. I'm a university professor, and I'm going to start developing a course on social media ethics immediately. Thank you, sir, and I fervently hope that the latest boneheaded move from Canadian politicians (who, I have to admit, are far outstripped in stupidity and selfishness by American politicians) doesn't end up killing the great content from you and others in the Great White North. Fight on, brother. 🤘

This new law seems sensible... I assume KZread is local to Canada only?

😮

I watch Canadian bloggers, woodworkers, scientists, bonsai sculptors, gamers... I'd say I have 20-30 channels I watch on a monthly basis making content in Canada. Hope that all goes smoothly over this, I'd hate to see anything happen to the great stuff Canadians bring to the table!

Good Vid Glenn. When I was young, CKLW that THEEEE station to listen too. It had the strongest signal too. I first hear the Beatles on that station.

I'm not from Canada and I've never been there. But the day I hear some positive development coming from that country, I may consider visiting. Good thing for my bank account: Seems to me like this isn't going to happen any time soon

I'm good friends with Dee's son Jesse Blaze, he helped me propose to my wife Sonia and do my baby gender reveal for my son Taran. One of the things he's most proud of his dad for is how he stood up to and outclassed the PMRC. It's also one of Dee's proudest moments. Hopefully the CRTC will be taken apart the same way by some prominent Canadian Musicians, Actors, and KZreadrs. It would be a shame to lose any Canadian content but especially you Glenn, my friend! 🤘😎🤘💙

Totally off-topic, but I've been really curious whether Dee has an opinion on these blanket bans on drag performance popping up in various states. (Hopefully this doesn't get _too_ political and hijack your comment, but so be it.)

@crnkmnky While I wouldn't want speak on Dee's behalf as to his political opinions, I can say that he has been very vocal on his X(Twitter) account about it. It's fair to say he's against them.

We in Australia have a similar problem where you just don't make it as a musician unless you get play on the J. One programming director has a stranglehold on the industry and guess what the root is? Government interference. It's a government operated radio station. Same for movies. Your movie doesn't get funded or promoted unless it checks all of screen Australia's many stupid boxes. Politicians curating art, what could go wrong?

Canadian here. Not surprised to hear that any governing agency in Canada ruins anything. I left Canada almost 5 years ago, I don't regret it.

Most terrifying words to date: "I'm from the Government and I'm here to help."

it never works when they say "politicians are thinking" that's a prediction for apocalypse

"We cannot order online streaming services to use specific algorithms to promote Canadian and indigenous content." Them, admitting this won't work.

In My humble opinion, Those of in the USA , that think this cannot happen here next... need to listen to this and support Glenn.

I had to pause the video when you made an AAS reference as I was doing something on my phone and didn't see the photo. I played it back and started laughing when I saw the photo and confirmed that you were talking about the "screamo" scene band lmao.

Fellow Canadian here. Didn't pay much attention to this new law, like a little here and there. I did not considered a lot of points form your video. I can understand the idea of protecting a culture, but like you said, this way to go will probably cut canadian content from the rest of the world.

I find either politicians are hilariously ignorant about technology or they want to control it. It's one or the other, nothing in between. This whole thing sounds like a stepping stone to the likes of Chinese internet regulation. Only showing the viewer the side what they want you to see.

Brutal as always!!! Loved your suggestions!! All the best from Chile!

Albertan here, I have nothing constructive to add, you said it exactly as I've been saying it. This comment is for the algorithm, let's get more eyes on this!

Liking a commenting to give this more traction. I'm not Canadian, but I love your videos glen and I think what you do is important

Government. Obey and comply.

Dee AND - surprisingly - John Denver were real surprises at the PMRC hearing. Zappa was, too, and made a good point: they stickered AN INSTRUMENTAL ALBUM (“Jazz From Hell”) for no reason whatsoever than Hell was in the title!

Stay safe man. I find your stuff educational. Also, if you want to throw my way one of those cassettes you have lying in your closet from your band days, let me know. I still have a tape player :)

Well said!! I hope they see the light. If they do not, come on down to Mississippi! 😅

I found ur channel by the good ol fashioned KZread algorithm Glenn! Ur point is 100% spot on!!!

Regardless of how it affects your channel, which I hope is none to at least minimal, your work is amazing and you’ve helped me grow into a more professional with your advice over the years! It won’t be the end for you at all my friend.

BE STRONG MAN! Two weeks in the hospital, and 3 operations now, i realize that arguing with you and this comunity about wood and pickups and shit like that, is NOT, just trivial bickering! I mean, IT IS JUST TRIVIAL BICKERING, but its so much more than that. It has become something to be a part of, and something good to look forward to from day to day. WE NEED YOU, I NEED YOU! Please stay strong and Fight!

God bless your KZread channel. You’ve really transformed me from Rule #2 to a multi tracking musician quad tracking my guitars
