As a private company Netflix is under no obligation to explain to anyone how they plan to spend their money. As a consumer you are under no obligation to buy their product. Somehow I find it hard to believe that making uniquely Canadian programmes will encourage more people to subscribe. The CBC has been at this for years, as has the private networks, and the duds beat the successes every time. The field is simply too crowded for stand alone Canadian content to succeed. Seriously how many versions of Anne of Green Gable can there be.
