No, we have not measured the violence nor any other kind of content on television. We do not have the means to do so. I have not seen any study or survey that clearly indicates what is happening on television. It must also be said that violent content is not necessarily problematic. For example, the kind of violence that would be in some cartoons can be completely unrealistic, but it is violence nevertheless. Is it a problem? Not necessarily. It is very important to carry out studies similar to those done by UCLA, in California, for the United States Congress. These studies analyzed the type of violence in order to determine whether or not it was of a nature to cause a problem. There is not necessarily an increase of problematic violence on Canadian television.
