Radio Sector > CCD
Private radio plays a major role in the success of Canadian music artists, not only by driving CD sales and providing on-air promotion of tours and musical events, but more importantly by providing name and song recognition to artists who often have little resources for promotion.
Private radio broadcasters help foster and develop Canadian music artists through direct financial contributions to eligible third parties associated with Canadian Content Development including FACTOR, MusicAction, national and provincial music organizations, performing arts groups, schools and scholarship recipients.
Through all of these initiatives, private radio has committed over $168 million since 1999 to Canadian Talent Development.
As part of the recent review of commercial radio, the CRTC has replaced the
expression “Canadian talent development” (CTD) with “Canadian content development” (CCD) to reflect a new emphasis on development initiatives that lead to the creation of
audio content for broadcast using Canadian resources.
