Canada Agriculture and Food Museum

The Canada Agriculture and Food Museum officially opened in 1983 and is located on the Central Experimental Farm site in Ottawa, Ontario. The Canada Agriculture and Food Museum seeks to fulfil its role as a national museum by connecting Canadians and international visitors to the historical and ongoing importance of agricultural science and technology in everyday life (see Agriculture in Canada). It accomplishes this mandate through the creation of engaging interpretive activities and products centred on an accessible demonstration farm.

CBC/Radio-Canada

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC)/Radio-Canada is one of the world's major publicly owned broadcasters. A crown corporation founded in 1936, it operates national and regional radio and television networks in English (CBC) and French (Radio-Canada). It broadcasts locally produced programs in English and eight Indigenous languages for people in the far North. It also runs a multilingual shortwave service for listeners overseas and provides closed captioning for the deaf. It gets nearly 60 per cent of its current funding from federal grants. It also draws revenue from sponsorship, advertising and the sale of programs to other countries. It is responsible to Parliament for its conduct. But the government has no control in the CBC’s day-to-day operations. For nearly 100 years, it has provided Canadians with a broad range of programming. Its critics continue to call for the CBC to be defunded and for the playing field for all broadcasters to be levelled.

Cannes Film Festival 2004

Celtic folk song is for the most part pentatonic in origin. The 5-scale note forms the basis of the 6-note (hexatonic) and 7-note (heptatonic) scales respectively. It is this gapped scale system that distinguishes the music of the Celts from the more widely used major-minor system.
