I read this:
Canadian content (abbreviated CanCon, cancon or can-con; French: Contenu canadien) refers to the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission (CRTC) requirements, derived from the Broadcasting Act of Canada, that radio and television broadcasters (including cable and satellite specialty channels) must produce and/or broadcast a certain percentage of content that was at least partly written, produced, presented, or otherwise contributed to by persons from Canada. For radio airplay the percentage is 40% and television is 55% yearly and 50% daily (CBC has a 60% CanCon quota). CanCon also refers to that content itself, and, more generally, to cultural and creative content that is Canadian in nature.

The loss of the protective Canadian content quota requirements is one of the concerns of those opposed to the Trans-Pacific Partnership.[1] Canada entered into the Trans-Pacific Partnership, a multilateral free trade agreement, in October 2012

is it true

I think he is trying to imply that the Canadian Content name has some sort of copywrite.

The loss of mandatory Canadian content would save taxpayers BILLIONS every year and we would be able to decide for ourselves what we want to hear/watch without bigbrother dictating our lack of choice.

Every last word is true although Canadian Content - The Musical takes a few artistic embellishments here and there.

But you know that the government will object as they feel we, the people, do not have the ability to discern what we should and should not watch and/or believe. They know better than we do. And, of course, there'll be "losers" (CBC anyone?) and that can't happen.
