Media Bites: Why Canadian Politics Isn't Netflix Material

J.J. McCullough | Posted 04.09.2013 | Canada Politics

The fact that Canada has spent a decade creating nothing comparable to House of Cards, Game Change and many more political dramas is a shame, but hardly surprising. We're a plucky lot -- and certainly no slackers in the world of entertainment -- but this is one realm where we're hopelessly out-gunned. There's never been (and never will be) a compelling Canadian political drama for one simple reason: Canadian politics is not interesting.

When Netflix Imitates Life

Gerald McEachern | Posted 05.16.2012 | Canada

"The Corporation" proved all over again just how much we've changed in 50 years. As I drive through rural New Brunswick, I can plainly see the great hollowing out of the rural economies. You see the old people still living alone in their crumbling houses, paint peeling and the part-time people who arrive in new SUVs and summer-ize their freshly painted pastel cottages overlooking the sea.
