Canadian content or can-con is the requirement that radio and television broadcasters (including cable TV networks) must air a certain percentage of content that was at least partly written, produced, presented, or otherwise contributed to by persons from Canada. It is enforced by the government agency, CRTC.

This concept also extends to some other countries as well. For example, Australian broadcasters are required to broadcast a certain percentage of Australian content alongside international content.
