Northern Peaks, canadian porn channel with local stars that you could "run into at the grocery store..."

An Edmonton-based adult film producer has won federal government approval for a new pornography channel with an unusual twist: half of the content is to be Canadian.

Shaun Donnelly's Real Productions received the OK from the CRTC on Wednesday to operate a digital cable channel -- called Northern Peaks -- that is billed as "Canada's first adult video channel programming significant Canadian content."

"There seems to be quite a market for Canadian adult content right now and of course there isn't a lot of supply," Mr. Donnelly said yesterday from the set of a show he is shooting for Playboy TV outside of Edmonton.

Real Productions, based in the Edmonton suburb of Sherwood Park, says it owns the largest library of Canadianmade pornography at more than 200 titles.

According to the conditions of the licence, Northern Peaks must devote 50% of its broadcast time to Canadian productions. More...
