For failing to broadcast sufficient levels of Canadian-made pornography and failing to close-caption said pornography properly a trio of Toronto-based erotica channels has earned a reprimand from the Canadian Radio-television & Telecommunications Commission.
Wednesday, the CRTC issued a broadcast notice saying AOV Adult Movie Channel, XXX Action Clips and the gay-oriented Maleflixxx were all failing to reach the required 35% threshold for Canadian content.
Based on a 24-hour broadcast schedule, that translates to about 8.5 hours of Canadian erotica a day.
The notice was issued as a result of Channel Zeros efforts to renew licences for all three erotica channels. The regulator will review the instances of apparent non-compliance at an April 28 hearing in Gatineau, Que.

One closed-caption file would work for all porn films. Something along the lines of
He: “Unnnnh. Uggggghhh. Uh uh uh.”
She: “Unnnnh. Ugggggghh. Oof oof oof.”
It: “Woof woof.”
