I used to tape #FrenchKiss religiously, late weekday mornings, on VHS, and rewatched them endlessly.

Her shout-out in the second (Nineties) instalment of my #OperationCanCon series recalled her positivity: "She's the one from French Kiss, come on, you're going to have fun for once."

RIP

🤯🎹🍁Okay... THIS IS A HUGE, HUGE, HUGE DEAL!!! One of #Canada's leading Canadian music luminaries, DJ, author and creator of the Ongoing History of New Music, Alan Cross, just gave #OperationCanCon a shout out!!!!

With Cancon in the news these days, there’s a new book on the subject. June 10, 2025 Alan Cross The Canadian Government and the CRTC are finally looking at the definition of Canadian content for the digital age. The last time anyone seriously talked about this was in 2005 (when nothing was done) and before that, 1996 (before the internet took hold). Add in the debates over Bill C-11 (which would require streamers to chip in for Canadian content development and news coverage), Cancon is going to be in the news a lot for the balance of the year. Derek Schraner has a new book on the subject which is part of a trilogy of books on Cancon–but it’s not a stuffy academic book. Instead, it gamifies things in an interesting way. Here’s Derek talking about Operation CanCon: Canadian Classics Music Shopping Gamebook.
