Good cartoon, but could someone broadcast it in English?

This is a good cartoon, but unfortunately it's broadcast on a French-language network here in Canada and no other animation network will pick it up and broadcast it in English. The series takes place in a fictional Australian city called Bushtown. The hero is a baseball hat-wearing kangaroo called Skippy, and he has a girlfriend named Matilda who's a TV reporter. Their main nemesis is Croc, a conniving crocodile who's the mayor of Bushtown, his rich-bitch wife and his gang of cronies. Croc and his gang always seem to be up to no good, and it's up to Skippy and Matilda to stop them and save the day. The series is adapted from an Australian TV show called "Skippy The Bush Kangaroo" which was a popular series in the late 1960s and early 1970s. I prefer this series more, because on live action programs the animals always ends up playing second fiddle to the human characters.

The animation is great. See it...even if you don't speak a word of French!
