Platforms must identify CanCon using a 60-point system they can’t verify (yes the government wants platforms and creators to verify they fit their definition of being Canadian)

The CRTC has notoriously weird and nonsensical definitions of CanCon. Like there was a doc about WAYNE FRIGGIN GRETZKY that didn't count but one about Gandhi that did.

If you're a Canadian musician, you'll need to prove you're Canadian and your music is Canadian or risk having your content hidden from Spotify.
