consequences of the acts. Other Content Guidelines: There will be no profanity, nudity or sexual content.

paid to themes which could threaten children's sense of security and well being. There will be no realistic

clearly imaginary, comedic or unrealistic in nature. Other Content Guidelines: There will be no offensive
language, nudity or sexual content.

Canadian French V-Chip Rating System

18+ (Adult) Programming is for adults only. This program contains sustained violence or extremely violent
scenes.
16+ (Viewer 16 and over) Programming is not suitable for those under age 16. This program contains
frequent scenes of violence or intensely violent scenes.
13+ (Viewer 13 and over) Programming may not be suitable for children under the age of 13. This
program either contains several violent scenes or one or more scenes that are violent enough to affect
them. Viewing in the company of an adult is therefore strongly recommended for children under the age of
13.
8+ (Viewer 8 and over) not recommended for young children. This program is suitable for most
audiences, but it contains mild or occasional violence that could upset young children. Viewing in the
company of an adult is therefore recommended for young children (under the age of 8) who do not
distinguish between reality and imagination.
G (General Audience) This program is suitable for audiences of all ages. It contains no violence, or any
violence that it does contain is either minimal or is presented in a humorous manner, as a caricature, or in
an unrealistic way.
