Bonjour, and welcome to the brave new age of radio. The word “fuck” is now officially allowed on Canadian airwaves, during the day, with some notable limitations. Namely, the programming must be in French.

The Canadian Broadcast Standards Council decided on Nov. 7 that “the English f-word does not have the same offensive connotation in French programming.” Its limited use does not offend broadcast standards, not even if aired on daytime shows. “If the word is used infrequently and not as an insult towards a particular person, it will be deemed acceptable in the context of French-language programming,” the CBSC provided in a statement.
