Let's Fix Cancon - Sign The Petition Now!

Gregg Terrence, president of the Canadian Independent Recording Artists’ Association, has created an online petition called Let’s Fix Cancon. Terrence proposes introducing “Cancon credits” that would entice stations to play new or developing artists. The site makes the case that when music programmers must choose between the ‘safe bet’ international star and the ‘risky’ established, national or developing artist … there is simply no incentive for choosing the lesser-known artist. So far the petition has 5,335 signatures.
