The short answer is yes. Our overwhelming focus is on making television programming that is distinctively Canadian and that is smart and popular.
Just this year alone, we broadcast a docudrama on the life of René Lévesque. We did a docudrama, to some controversy, on Tommy Douglas. We did a docudrama on the War Measures Act and the events of October 1970.
But we think that there is a whole series of other ways of exploring the nature of the country. Certainly the one I'm most fond of is Little Mosque on the Prairie. Little Mosque on the Prairie gave us an opportunity to explore relationships between the Muslim community and the community more broadly, but to do so in a way in which we put aside stereotypes, in which we put aside a whole series of vilifications that have been going on over the course of the last little while. And we had an opportunity to make a comedy in which people encountered each other in their full differences, but completely as human beings.
What was so fantastic about this particular program was that the response of Canadians was overwhelming. This clearly became not only the most talked about but the most popular new show, I dare say, in the last five years. In fact, it became a sort of small ambassador for the country throughout the rest of the world. CNN sent Paula Zahn up to talk about it. It was on the front page of the entertainment section of The New York Times. It was covered extensively in France and in Britain as to what it was. Many people's feeling was that not only was this an interesting thing because it was a uniquely Canadian way of exploring these kinds of issues, but it was something that many other people would have found absolutely impossible to approach.
So it's not just to do things that are docudramas about historical events but to engage in terms of the current social issues that confront us, and to do so in a way that's popular, that's smart, and that's entertaining.
