Canada

Protect our economy but sell every business to Americans at the drop of a hat.

I can't tell if that's sarcasm or not, but cultural protectionism is in a way anti-progress, it sequesters cultural ideas to be almost 'stuck in time'. But let's be real, Canadian artists, while talented, haven't really been backed by the government to push beyond the North American market, or even beyond its own nation's borders. Look at K-pop and all of what South Korea has managed. It's clear that language isn't really the barrier - but rather what companies and governments are willing to back and put money where it matters.
