THE FINE FOLKS AT CHCH recently let Cartt.ca editor and publisher Greg O'Brien take camera operator Thomas Bowser out on the streets of Oakville and Hamilton to do what the CRTC is doing – and hoping the industry will do more of – ask Canadians to Talk TV.

We spent a few hours on November 22nd on Lakeshore Drive in Oakville, then in Hamilton on the corner of King William and James St. N., and the corner of King St. W. and Marion Ave. and did our best to Talk TV with these random Canadians. CHCH even had Greg on CHCH Morning Live last Thursday to talk about the CRTC process and what we found out during our series of streeters.

We found it insightful and we hope you do, too. These are snapshots of the viewers so many Cartt.ca readers are reaching – or trying to reach. Click here for the full run of interviews.

We hope this counts as a “flash conference” for the purposes of the Commission’s Television Policy Review.
