It has always been my understanding CBC costs the taxpayers far in excess of what its true value is. Is this true??? If so, then better to contract out rather then pay employees when not required.
Time the taxpayers got a break. The majority of us do not expect something for nothing, and we surely do not get compensated unless we are entitled. Should be the same for one and all.
Padded positions have to come to an end.
I, personally, do not care if they walk the walk for another year. Reality has to faced sooner than later.
I, for one, am tired of seeing taxpayers money being wasted, and CBC has been a master at wasting our money.
Guess I lose my brownie points on this issue!!!!

The problem with the CBC is that it is a political puppet of the party in power. This has to be remedied.

I like the BBC world model myself in that they accept no advertising and do not socially engineer with their programming to the extent that the CBC does.

If they can just report the facts and let us make up our minds, I think that would be great. Also they should make a better effort to provide the full spectrum of opinions through on-line message boards that allow Canadians to interact and find common interests.

I think the advertising dollars should go to private service providers, and I would be willing to subsadize the CBC more if that was the case.

The problem with CBC is that because it does not have advertising on the radio and because it is funded by the feds by just over 50% rather than a cent or so on your favourite breakfast cereal people feel tht they cannot simply vote by a click on their remote but have to *** about it.

Maybe they should simply turn into another commercial station, or run like the PBS in the States and depend on donations.
