Lists the four platforms in the CCA process: The Broadcast Code for Advertising to Children (television), the Canadian Code of Advertising Standards (all media), media literacy education, and social messaging. Indicates interest in CCA from Singapore and the UK. Explains CCA’s success as due to consistent campaigns, the commitment of a group of companies to empowering children, and support from government and independent agencies.
