Naked Canadians
An Edmonton-based adult film producer has won federal government approval for a new pornography channel with an unusual twist: half of the content is to be Canadian.Shaun Donnelly's Real Productions received the OK from the CRTC on Wednesday to operate a digital cable channel -- called Northern Peaks -- that is billed as "Canada's first adult video channel programming significant Canadian content." Real Productions, based in the Edmonton suburb of Sherwood Park, says it owns the largest library of Canadian made pornography at more than 200 titles. "Yeah, they're, like, naked as an egg, eh." According to the conditions of the licence, Northern Peaks must devote 50% of its broadcast time to Canadian productions. A CRTC spokesperson said yesterday that to the best of his knowledge, it is the highest Canadian content level ever for an adult channel. "I've always found there's a real turn-on to watching and knowing it's people you could run into in the grocery store," he said. (thereby combining the concepts of "naked" and "eggs" in a way that . . . eeew, I don't wanna go there.) Posted by: Mike 2008-08-15 |
