Canadian Rating Systems - HP LC3760N Mode D'emploi

Canadian rating systems

The TV rating systems in Canada are based on the
Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications
Commission (CRTC) policy on violence in television
programming.
While violence is the most important content element to
be rated, the structure developed takes into
consideration other program content like language,
nudity, sexuality, and mature themes.
When setting the V-Chip on the Canadian system, you
can choose either the Canadian English ratings or the
Canadian French ratings.
Canadian English ratings
CE rating
E Exempt: Includes news, sports, documentaries and other information programming, talk shows,
music videos, and variety programming.
C Children: Intended for younger children under the age of 8 years. Pays careful attention to
themes that could threaten their sense of security and well-being.
C8+ Children over 8 years old: Contains no portrayal of violence as the preferred, acceptable, or
only way to resolve conflict; nor encourages children to imitate dangerous acts which they may
see on the screen.
G General: Considered acceptable for all age groups. Appropriate viewing for the entire family;
Age contains very little violence — physical, verbal, or emotional.
PG Parental Guidance: Intended for a general audience, but may not be suitable for younger
children (under the age of 8) because it could contain controversial themes or issues.
14+ Over 14 Years: Could contain themes where violence is one of the dominant elements of the
storyline, but it must be integral to the development of plot or character. Language usage could
be profane and nudity present within the context of the theme.
18+ Adults: Intended for viewers 18 years and older and might contain depictions of violence, which
while related to the development of plot, character, or themes, are intended for adult viewing.
Could contain graphic language and portrayals of sex and nudity.
