Maybe Canadian music sucks to Yanks? Then stop listening to Nelly Furtado, The Tea Party, Our Lady Peace, Barenaked Ladies, Treble Charger, Outkast, I Mother Earth (old and new), Gob, Alanis Morissette, just to name a few.
You might as well isolate yourselves from us all now. We're so bad.

they have those laws so that radio stations will play Canadian content...made in Canada, which helps the economic wheel turn by supporting Canadians. I hope that XM will have to abide by the CRTC rules. We are already waaay to americanized and loosing our good Canadian music would suck ***.

And I'm not taking this so seriously. I'm just stating my factual opinions.

If they did have them that would be great. I love the eastern seaboard Fiddle music, and I love anything from Scotland and Ireland, so I would tune into stuff like that, but most of the time I just like anything and everything on the radio.
Agreed Canada has to regulate some of the music, but does that mean they have to shove it down peoples throat? It really gets to me if your listening to a great mix of music, and then all of a sudden, from out of no where, they put on this artist that shouldn't have every been allowed to release an album, on the airwaves. I switch stations -- Always.
Perry is right... I wouldn't want Content Laws interfearing with my music if it was over Sat.
If the artist is good enough to be played on a certain channel, than so be it, but I hate it when songs that are so out of the time or out of the loop of the music that was flowing, just to meet "Content Laws".
