Process
In order to determine an average rating, a numerical value is applied to each of the five rating classifications. The eight participating provincial ratings are applied the appropriate numerical value and then an average is calculated. For example, if a film receives five 14As and three 18As, the numerical values would be 3, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, and 4 (the Maritimes count as three provinces and Saskatchewan is counted separately from British Columbia) which gives an average of 3.4 which would equate to a 14A Canadian Home Video Rating.
