Link: CBC Does Have A Future

From James Bawden:

CBC Does Have A Future
In recent years the few critics remaining were supplemented by hordes of CBC employees all eager for the free food.

    1. Canadian networks have no choice most Canadians want American content you don’t air what people want that’s the end of your channel or service.

  2. Does this guy ever post any other point? Yes, we get it. There’s a black helicopter committee of Americans controlling everything that gets made. I lost my membership card, but if I remember correctly it had part of Mickey Mouse’s ear stapled to it.
