I gave upon the CBC years ago. I used to listen to the Calgary Eyeopener until the election battle between Jean Chrétien and Stockwell Day. Chrétien promised to increase CBC funding and the CBC went into full-blown ass kiss mode. The Eyeopener featured Rick Mercer doing his Stockwell Day/Doris Day schtick and the host went to News break with “When we return, more funny stuff about Stockwell Day”. I hold no brief for Stockwell Day but that was unforgivable.

I agree with the critiques of the CBC, but The Line has also (to my knowledge) written nothing or very little about the Saskatchewan and BC elections. Is this not another media outlet more concerned about the US situation than the one at home?
