Additionally, Toope specifies that Canadians must confront their errors and understand their strengths, in order to further themselves as a strong country, and “grow up” (abstract). Over the many years of Canada’s existence, its citizens and base fundamentals have managed to solidify a society revolving around an openness to immigration, resulting in a rare evolution of a nation that is to be cherished. In relation, Toope expresses that it is a truism that many
Trudeau envisions Canada as composed of “diverse cultures” living in mutual respect, support and by sharing the nation in peace and in justice. Through bilingualism and the Multiculturalism Policy in 1971, Trudeau attempts to strengthen the national identity of Canada as a multicultural nation.

Trudeau further emphasizes the need for collectivism by stating that it is not regional barriers that will strengthen the economy but rather the bilingualism and the sharing of land such as crown like like national parks.

In technicality, “Canadian recordings take up 35% of programming, but their share of market in Canada is well below this number at about 14,5%”(canada at 32) In fact many radio broadcasters have struggled to meeting the Cancon quotas because of the difficulty to find quality content.

Without people to buy their music and movies, Canadian artists and companies will slowly die out. The idea of supporting Canadian artists is the exposure of Canadian Content; some are bound to enjoy it and will, therefore, buy albums and other products, supporting the Canadian producers.
