Harper Failed to Defund the CBC

 And now we have to live with it:

Conservative senators seek hearings on declining audience numbers for the CBC. As few as 232,000 Canadians watch the network’s flagship 6 pm local newscasts: ‘The number of viewers is declining despite increased funding with taxpayer dollars.’

** 

The CBC breached its federal license by cancelling local suppertime TV newscasts nationwide, regulators admit. The network on March 18 blacked out 6 pm newscasts for the first time since 1952, blaming Covid-19: “There is very little the CRTC can do.”

 

Then the CRTC should go.

I'm sure no one will miss its regulations.
