Thank you for that brilliant lesson Ken... 
The highest rated show ever in Quebec is "la petite vie" with about
4Million, and you can't get more "qu�b�cois" than that.
Otherwise, from the week of the 9th to the 15th of september about 15 of
the 20 most watched shows are quebec made.  And this is out or the ratings
period.  In that perticular period, the count, and Quebec's own
productions just go higher.
You should get your facts straight before you appose judgment.

If you're interested, you can check out this adress:

under "Menu Principal" and then "Cotes d'Ecoute"...

And BTW, I'm not saying that we are impervious to american culture, but we
certainly don't share it like other north americans.
