          Yeah I understand completely, I will not be buying from American companies, but that doesn’t mean I’m gonna start accepting price gouging from Canadian capitalists either.

          That five finger discount on milk is still being observed.

    Damn, I wish there was such an organization to promote Canadian media. Fuck, whatever are we going to do.

    Edit: I like to think my joke was a little too crafty. The CBC’s mandate is: Be predominantly and distinctively Canadian; Contribute to a shared national consciousness and identity; and more.

    After watching Yannick Bisson and Hélène Joy film a scene right next to my wife’s workplace, we decided to binge Murdoch Mysteries. There are 18 season on CBC Gem! It’s going to take awhile.

      I’ve seen a few episodes here and there. It’s charming, and doesn’t take itself too seriously (or, honestly, very seriously at all).

      You might like midsomer murders if that’s your vibe.

      It’s British and there’s like 22 seasons.

      I have a friend who writes midsomer murders fan fiction but he hasn’t let me actually read it. But the point is it’s good enough to have a fan fiction community.

    If anyone likes medical dramas, my wife and I really like Skymed, it’s on CBC Gem. This most recent season (still ongoing) has been a lot of fun, the producers and/or writers have clearly been given the freedom to experiment with the format.

    Use your local libraries!

    Even if you watch American media you’re still cutting out the streaming service.

      Hmm. For movies taking out DVDs would make sense, I guess.
