Original YTV staff member here. Think Canadian Nickelodeon. The CRTC licensed entire demographic-based channels so that broadcasters could pull in big ad $$ on US programming while also spending $ on Canadian productions as a condition for being able to do so. Like us. We did that really really well

Rode out Wilma just north of Tulum in 05. The biggest issue for us was lack of comms after all the towers blew down. Total devastation on the ground and the tall glass hotels were poor choices. The smaller buildings did surprisingly ok as long as they were set back from the beach.
