The CBC wants your help...suckers!

Tell the CRTC to support, revitalize and reimagine the CBC

I am writing in support of strong and vibrant public media for the 21st century.

I note that tens thousands of Canadians have spoken out against funding cuts to the CBC; thousands also contributed and ranked ideas to strengthen the future of public media at Support, Revitalize, Reimagine... | Reimagine CBC. The top priorities for our public media that emerged from this consultation are: informed and in-depth reporting, uniquely Canadian content, and a public watchdog over powerful interests.

The license renewal process provides an opportunity to look broadly at the necessary role the CBC plays in our media system and our democracy. I believe the CRTC, with the support of Canadians, can and must enable the CBC to excel in that role. In setting policy and conditions of licence, I urge you to focus on the objectives of supporting an informed citizenry through courageous, in-depth reporting from a Canadian perspective that provides content the private sector does not.

I’m pleased to participate in this public process about the CBC. The ReimagineCBC.ca project models the kind of open and participatory public engagement that can be used in the future to determine the direction of the CBC. I trust that you will take Canadian views seriously during this hearing, and thank you for your kind attention.

Oh, and as sda suggested, You might be a Liberal if you mindlessly send this form letter in without editing it.


small dead animals: The CBC may be reimagined...

After the war crimes trials for " journalist" I think reliable factual public broadcasting could continue. As a matter of fact I'm sure it would, but only after the trials.

In fairness I have listened to some awesome CBC Radio over the last few months.

• The Debators
• Vinyl Cafe
• Randy Bachman's Vinyl Tap
• As it happens
• Rex Murphy Cross Country Check-up

It's not all bad folks.

Oh boy he's been brainwashed....

Only good show there is Rex's and he's was gone all summer and it was crap; thankfully he was back this past Sunday.

So how was vacation Rex?

As it happens sucks soooooo bad it could replace Rex Morphy. The vinyl cafe should be drive through only. Randys good and the debators very good. The rest ain\t even from Canada

Top form, as always.

.....Me, well by de jeez, lads, I likes de CBC, eh!! Specially dat Land and Sea ting. If I's could jist unnnerstan em a bit more it might be a tad better. But, she ain't bad like she is doh, eh. Kood be me ears eh. Ain't been rite since de wife took me cross de hed wit the manure shovel.

When ya hears summun say; "passdegoddamtatersansaltandbequicksboutitferi'sfe tchyaakikinderarse"..........on prime time, eh.......ya jist no everytings alrite wit da werld.

Sounds to me like one of the badly overweight boss pigs noticed the hole half way up the trough

Rex gave a wonderful address at Peter Lougheed's Memorial.

I would imagine it was quite eloquent. He is quite the wordsmith.

I beg to differ.

This forum would be very boring if we were all the same.

On this we agree.

How boring!
