YouTube, the world’s most popular online video community, has launched its local Canadian site YouTube.ca to give Canadians the best video content from around the world through a local interface that promotes the content most relevant to them.
With local search features such as promoted videos, featured videos, and homepage promotions, YouTube Canada makes it even faster and easier for the local Canadian YouTube community to quickly search and view video content most relevant to them.
Content uploaded by users in Canada will show up as “top favourites” and “recommended content” on the YouTube Canada site, creating a new space for the national community and giving Canadian users the opportunity to increase their exposure and become local stars, and increasing their exposure within the YouTube international community as well.
YouTube has already signed various relationships with content partners in Canada including Dose.ca, CBC, CFL, CommandN, NewsCanada, UNICEF, and SONY BMG Canada.
