The CBC is a big part of the reason Canada isn’t as messed up as the US.
Canada has for-profit media and plenty of media that leans left or right. But, CBC exists to anchor that media universe with a boring, institutionalist, honest view.
The US has NPR and PBS but I’m guessing they’re not as influential as the CBC is in Canada
Any problems the CBC has will be dwarfed by the massive problems having a for profit media cause.
When money becomes the only goal, society will be harmed.
When money becomes the only goal, society will be harmed.
That’s true in every part of society, not only the media.
As more and more traditional media die, the more we need CBC. It’s only becoming more important.
Hey, Ontario dumbfucks, stop voting CPC. You can swing this election.
I won’t be voting for the Liberal party again unless they give us the electoral reform they promised us and didn’t deliver when they had a majority government.
I’m hopeful for a strong NDP opposition to a Conservative minority.
Lol, I have been voting since the 2000’s and never voted CPC or any other Conservative party until 2019 (and still haven’t provincially)… Provide me with an alternate that leaves both the Liberals and NDP without power and I’ll gladly not vote CPC this time around.
Full disclosure: I’ve recently been considering voting PPC for the first time.
I actually joined their party once to vote for a new leader. My person lost and with the shitshow that followed I’ll be avoiding them too.
The conservatives truly want to destroy Canada, they look to the south, see the divided country down there, and say “yes, please, some of that up here”
