The CBC doesnβt do a perfect job but itβs far better than not having them.
That said itβs often better to look at foreign reporting of your country to get a better perspective.
I like the BBC for that with regards to Canada and either BBC or CBC for the US.
Yup, CBC can be hit or miss on our local oligarchs.
I suppose that anyone that cannot see the similarities between Squinty McProudBoy and trump will be voting for Squinty McProudBoy and his base of white supremacists, fascists, racists, misogynists and assholes.
He doesn't seem very much like Trump to me, and I definitely won't be voting for him.
Like, he seems bad, but let's not cheapen actual fascism.
I listen and enjoy listening to CBC radio.
This would actually make my day to day life worse and I doubt he would give me a tax break that would be worth it.
There wouldnt be a single dollar tax break on the middle class...
On the rich, on the other hand.
Even the carbon tax is only a net loss for the most polluting and usually richest Canadians.
(Well, unless you include lost growth, but at that rate you should include the cost of climate change too, and it's a net gain for almost everyone)
Media like the CBC and the ONF have been a huge part of my childhood. It would be a shame that future generations wouldn't get to experience it.
CBC is a mid news outlet, some bad reporting, some good reporting, I can see the benifit of their execs getting a pay cut, but overall is ok.
I can hardly wait to not vote for this guy.
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.

Ontario is a brain injury.
