Remember the CBC is owned by the Liberals.

A more correct answer would be "The Liberal Party currently holds a majority government, and the CBC is funded, and controlled at arms length, by the government."

If the CPC gains power, they will defund the CBC. If you were the CBC, who would you favour?

How many times this week?

SreudianFlip@sh.itjust.works · 3 pts · 23d (1 reply)

Oh, just the one time this week, but fortunately Voyager app has a nice tagging feature, so it doesn’t happen much and I don’t have to worry about blocking.

Hope that helps!

Does it also come with an option to give a thicker skin, or is that a paid option?

Truth never supports conservatives, any more than basic economics does. That's not the CBC' s fault though.

I'd rely on facts instead of ideology. You'll be better off in the long run.

The CBC is owned by Canadians.

But they carry the Liberal party's water. Many analysts have said as much.
