Abstract
The purpose of this research paper is to provide an insight of the value of and utility of Canadian content rules for television in the broadcasting system. The definition of the Canadian content is an issue in the all cultural industries in Canada. Innumerable governmental inventiveness necessitates that cultural products have a determined level of the Canadian content rules to qualify for the funding, to preserve licensing or to be eligible for credit exposed taxes (Brown, 2013). The definition of the Canadians content for film and other related television products, magazines, book publishing, new media's and sound recording operates on the mix position regarding the company ownership and nationality (Tukachinsky, Mastro, and Yarchi, 2015). The dissertation focuses on the value and effectiveness of the Canadian content rules for televisions, specifically on the television productions or Canadian films. Also, the study examines the ethics of broadcasting laws and policies in Canada; it interprets the critical aspects of data collected from the federal government and different institutions database (Scherer and Rowe, 2013).
CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1. Background Information
The historical preferences of television in Canada date back in 1952 in Montreal and Toronto. The most media in Canada that is the television industry and the television programming in the nation are greatly influenced by the press high holds in the United States (McDowell, 2013). Television in Canada was achieved by the installation telecasts in the country, and the availability of the television sets received based signals in homes near the border of the U.S between 1946 and 1953 (Thomas and Kobayashi, 2014). The researchers have provided analysis and insights on various issues that challenges the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) and the public service providers (PCP) since the introduction of the internet.
The significant contextual contrast between the CBC and PCP that make the situation in Canada separate are the plans and the actions of the federal government and the Canadian Radio-television Telecommunications Commission (CRTC), (Radio-television, 2012). The Canadian content regulations dealing with both radios and television provided the fundamental insight on how television has impacted the Canadian both based on the ethnicity. The legal system devised in 1976 and enforced by the Canadian Audio-visual Certification Office in the department of the Canadian royal heritage. According to the summary of the CanCon of programs for television, according to Acheson, the summation of the citizens performing the primary functions in the production program and with the inclusion of the number of the expenditures ion the services as provided by Canadians (Acheson and Maule, 2003).
1.2 Purpose and scope of the research
The motivational activism of this work review is to highlight how the Canadian content rules for the television industry has been aired by the body which controls the communication and information technology that's the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (Price and M. E. 2013). Canada is a multiethnic nation with ethnic relations having power between them. The intensification of the global stratification has champions for the management of the ethnic relations between different groups since it forms part of the nation. The continuous immigration cases the country has been experiencing has brought about multiethnic. The contemporary study shows that the relationship between the indigenous people and the media through television broadcasting, productions and films has been directed to the minority in Canada (McDowell, 2013). The mass media influences the individuals perception based on social gender and how the practices correctly holds in the society is impacted by its social environment.

The primary perspective of the research is the government s position and role in the content rule for the television with regard to ethnic relations in the ethnic media. The actual practices and the effects of television are also presented on the secondary data from different sources, aiming at analyzing the implementation and effects of the policies. The thesis of this research transpose on how the Canadian ethnic population is significantly influenced by the broadcasting system and how the context rules supports the traditional broadcasting system (McMahon, R., Hudson, H. E and Fabian, 2014).

LITERATURE REVIEW.
2.1. INTRODUCTION
This chapter provides a comprehensive review of ancient literature obtained from the research and surveys previously conducted on the topic. The section provides the relevant details of the variables, which are pertinent to the conceptual framework, identified in the chapter. The Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunication Commission chairperson, Jean-Pierre Blais relaxed the rules governing the Canadian television stations to help them accomplish the choices of limitation that online video offers. Following the speech at Ottawa, a Canadian club on Thursday, Pierre announced various decisions on the future from the dubbed conversation which was aired on the Let's Talk Television. The relationship between the ethnicities in Canada and the dynamic section of the television broadcasting stations was one of the central research questions that the Act addresses. Over the past year, various reports and consultations have embraced that the production activity in Canada doubled to approximately 3.2 billion in 2000-2001 respectively. Also numerous reports and conventions have shown that be it that that the current generation measures are still necessary to meet the government aims review of their film and television.
The review of the Canadian Feature film policy which was adopted in the year 1998-2000 to protect the improvements on the television programs, and the production 8uindustry in the country was compromising the fair access to both the aboriginals who exists in the nation. The change in the context of the Public service board and the broadcasting television stations, according to Lowe and Hujanene raised their argument that the public service broadcasting still has value to reach everybody. They considered both the majority and the minority to promote civil rights since this could ensure pluralism, which is regarded as an essential democracy, provide education and entertainment, they also stressed on the cultural nourishment (Hujanene and Lowe, 2003). The recurring themes in the PSB operate as universal service, with the probability of nurturing the diversity.
The change of the immigrant laws in Canada led to the process of multiculturalism and then half of the immigrants into Canada (Paquet, 1989). Upon the decision of designing the content policy integrated the positive provisions of a shifting majority in the coalition have been described as wicked problems (Paquet, 1989). The current failures of the Advertising based Television Unscramble television broadcasts differs from the magazines and other sources of media. Based on the public broadcasting proficiency, it replaced the advertising-based television with the involved incentives faced by public broadcasters. The historical prevalence's in Canada shows that there has been a debate over the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) should receive funding on a longer term basis (peers, 1979). The double case study on the BBC and Dutch broadcasters by Leurdijk (2007) digitized and released of archival material to explore how the regulators are re-defining public a digital media environment.

METHODOLOGY
3.1 Introduction.
This qualitative research is critical study, which seeks to establish the extent of the suitability of the Canadian content rules. The research study uses the secondary information to examine the prevailing circumstances and facts surrounding the results of exposing the media to the content, national laws and policies.
3.2. Use of Secondary Data
The use of secondary data in conducting a research study implies that a research uses data that had previously documented by initial research on the related studies (Westaway &Luke, 2014). Even though these sources of information regarded as secondary data, they are basic and obtained from the initial research activities, during which the research gathered data from primary sources, using primary methods. The essential information when conducting secondary data involves the same analysis from the Canadian national government communication. The non-profit organizations, higher learning institutions, and the private agencies also showed interest in getting access to them and promoted a nation that has its media compromising the needs of the ethicists.
3.3. Advantages of Secondary Sources.
Secondary research information and data are both times and cost-effective. It is a fact that a researcher requires relatively less time and financial resources in the process of gathering secondary data as compared to collecting primary data (Luckey, 2011). While conducting this study, secondary data were available at relatively less expensive costs.
In addition to the major dimensions of information available on secondary data platforms, it may help the researcher in clarifying the research question (Luckey, 2011). Upon research, it is significant to develop analytical study based on the expectation and the ability to strengthen and embrace the overview of the past literature.
3.4. Conclusion
This chapter plays a pivotal role in answering the question of the value of and utility of Canadian rules for television which has been an overcoming question to the communication department of the information technology in the Canada and the Canadians having its influence from the United States.
