The hand scrawled notes say it all,  Daybreak, returns to the airwaves tomorrow morning.  


A deal was reached between the CBC and the Canadian Media Guild, ending a long, lockout.

The CBC's Negotiationg team issued this statement:

"These last seven weeks have been very difficult for everyone throughout the Corporation, and we will work hard to overcome the challenges that this labour dispute has presented for us – our future as an organization depends on it. We look forward to seeing everyone back at work, doing what they do best: creating and broadcasting exceptional television, radio and online programming for Canadians across the country."

Happy to see everyone back to work. Didn't really know what the issues were.

It seemed to be a very low key event for the most part. Do I live a sheltered life? Was their not much media coverage over this work stopage? Makes me wonder what effect the lock out had on the consumers?

How much is CBC subsidized by the taxpayers again?
