Probably the same kind of people who make similar arguments about CanCon.

There's always been this tension between "We need a thriving TV and film industry in this country" and "Most of what we produce is garbage for the purpose of using government grants" here. Can't help but wonder if it's the same on your end of the planet (#justcommonwealththings).

At least there are always a couple diamonds in the sludge, though (here, Schitt's Creek, TPB, and I'm sure some others even though the other ones I think of are looong over)
