We keep wandering into the U.S. Strangely, they haven't built a wall to keep US out.

It's not a lack of talent. They have a government mandate that each television station has to have at least so much Canadian produced content, so a lot of stations just put the bare minimum in to producing OC just so they can be compliant.

we put gravy on fries though

>They have a government mandate that each television station has to have at least so much Canadian produced content
What kind of shit law is that

This. Lots of good original content comes out of Canada that isn’t televised.

Nobody’s built any wall yet, whiny neighbor to north.

jacob two two and being ian are the best cartoons since exo squad. i will fight anyone who says otherwise

Writers and creators were all american

basically it's a law from the radio days of the twenties to stop American media from completely subsuming what little unique culture we had.

Production get a massive tax break in Canada and even some art bonuses making it very economically smart to produce creative works up here.

(tl;dr we're basically Ireland but for creative content)

Canadians are weird.

Doesn't Ireland have more good media output than Canada though?

Does Richard Williams count?

they don't have any except a couple mid budget movies once in a while as far as I know (could be wrong).
But I was more talking about how Ireland is a corporate tax haven so companies will buy a small office with a few employees and say that they are an Irish company and pay way less in taxes

I'd sacrifice the entire country of Canada before I let someone touch a hair on Dylan Moran's head

Many countries have a version of it. The mandatory percentage is actually really low in Canada, by international standards

It's an attempt to mandate a distinct cultural identity.

The moral of the story is to be careful what you wish for.

Reboot, Beast Wars, Battle Planets, Stickin Around, Mona the Vampire, Cyber Six etc. Canada was pumping out good shit until the conservative governments slashed media funding and mandates.

Seems to blend pretty hard these days.

Once again Albertans prove to be of superior stock

Even as a Canadian I say you're full of shit, we're America lite and anyone who says otherwise is just a pretentious hipster who when asked how we're not would just say "Ahhhh-hahaha! Are you kidding me?"

I'm sorry you have such low self esteem, user.

Should we tell him?

I'd argue it's less a lack of talent, but rather there are incentives to produce something quickly and cheaply.

In the 80s and 90s there was a lot of american cartoons being broadcast in Canada, so there was stiff competition to get something to air if it was made at home. It had to compete with the entire US market. In the early 2000s there were some rules changed about what can and cannot be on a 'childrens cartoons channel lineup', and Canadian tv channels specializing in cartons had to have a minimum of Canadian made content. So channels went out and purchased/funded the cheapest, most quickly produced Canadian cartoons they could get their hands on, thus the rise of Canadian flash cartoons becoming a meme.

Nelvana is shit. It's become nothing but a factory of poorly-animated stillborn products that's only around so that Corus can prove that their channels still have new shows.

>Music, TV, and movies we watch are all 90% American (or are rip offs of American stuff)
>Ford and Toyota are without comparison the most common cars on the roads
>We dress exactly like Americans, some of us even wear cowboy hats and boots
>Almost all our food minus poutine at most is based on American shit
>Accents that even we couldn't distinguish from Northern Americans
Let's face it, if you dropped someone from America into the middle of a Canadian city without any knowledge of where he was or how he got there he wouldn't even realize he was in Canada until he came across a flag or a Tim Hortons.

Just say it was Teletoon's fault. You know it's true.
They were starved for content and commissioned anything, budget and quality be damned. At least YTV could get by with live-action.

>Indian
I hadn't realize the brown tide had become so dire.

It's almost like we came from the same place or something

isnt em ell pee canuck made?

So you agree with me that Canada is pretty much America lite?

>Quebec
Why are french Canadians so fucking full of themselves, Holy shit

Teletoon is probably one of the biggest offenders.

A few good things came out of it through, stuff that was dubbed in Canada counted towards the Canadian content minimum, so there was actually a decent amount of anime floating around on ytv during that time as well as some french shows that were localized here.

they are part of usa

canada has no culture

This has to be a parody, because Ontario being Indian and BC being Asian is just too fucking perfect.

My pastor told me imagination is of the Devil though, does that make me Cuban or Dominoes Pizza Republic of Hate?

Yeah OP all their talent went to making music.

Lebanese, eh?

You think when Canada and the US collapse, some of the lower provinces and upper midwest states will unite to make their own countries?

What a passe concept though, just like your ambitions in the face of human affection.

Look man, you're gonna need guns, we're gonna need syrup, best start making plans now because Neo Atzlan ain't going to stop once they consume California and Arizona.

More like Canada is the pure version of America.

MDF is canadian and he draws the nice titty

Mercury Filmworks says hi.

>creampie
Ah shit, it knows
>also Quebec is Quebec
They really do sniff their own farts down there.

at least we're not the fucking cuckolds who look for asian and pajeet porn

I'd say it's more of a younger idealistic sister that depends on big sis America than mommy UK.

you're making me want lewd scenarios with these three

We're on Yea Forums someone should draw this,not neccesarly lewd stuff likeis suggesting, more like USA and Canada having a sibling fight like USA-girl saying "Stop parroting everything mom say,it's annoying" and Canada-little sister beingl ike "s-Shut up,hwy dont you answer her phone call"
