A National Post article claims Canada’s bureaucracy wants to make sure webporn is sufficiently Canadian. I am wondering what this involves. Here are my suggestions, **but please add yours**. - Pizza carried by delivery man will have to contain bacon, pepperoni, mushrooms or pineapple. - Background music must contain Canadian element such as noises from moose, loons or indigenous wildlife. Tunes with Canadian element (such as the theme song from the Definition game show or prominent artists) also acceptable. - TV repairman has to be licensed to major duopoly with prominently displayed logos. - Use of local foods such as maple syrup encouraged. ---

Perhaps they could begin to restore their lost glory with some animated porn?
