CBC/Radio-Canada’s funding by the federal government is well below the average funding of G7 countries, which is $62.20 per capita. Currently, the government grants approximately $1.38 billion to CBC/Radio-Canada, which represents approximately $33.66 per capita, thereby placing Canada in sixth place in the Group of Seven (G7) in terms of public funding per capita for its national public broadcaster. The per capita funding that CBC/Radio-Canada receives is therefore equal to approximately half of the G7 average. The Minister intends to bring Canada more into line with its G7 counterparts.

So, all those folk who like CBC just need to remember to vote in the federal election.
Not only vote, but voting for candidates endorsing good policies!
And vote in the Ontario election today (February 27). The last election had the worst voter turnout since confederation.
Cows, I have voted in every election at every level since I became eligible to vote over 50 years ago, yes, including today’s. If Doug Ford is still in office tomorrow, it won’t be because I didn’t turn out.
