CBC guilty of systemic betrayal of Canada

In the past two weeks, our CBC has sunk to new lows in its betrayal of Canada. It has launched another all-out assault against Canada’s majority, European-based, White population. It has done that by accusing Canada and its institutions of “systemic racism”.

Assuming that the word “systemic” means “existing throughout an institution or existing throughout a population”, the CBC is accusing the majority of Canadians and the majority of Canada’s institutions of being racist. That’s quite a charge to make, so the logical question that Canadians should ask the CBC is this : What evidence does the CBC have? For example, the Vancouver CBC has recently used Vancouver Police Department statistics to claim that there has been an increase in what the police describe as Anti-Asian “hate crimes” and that these numbers should be a cause for major concern. According to the VPD, those numbers are less than 200.

CBC edits out federal funding discussion

Conservative leadership candidate Erin O'Toole had an answer edited out by the CBC during an interview with the crown broadcasting corporation—during this answer, O'Toole made the case for defunding the CBC.

The CBC only chose to edit out the question and answer that related to the CBC's federal funding. No other answers were cut from the interview.

Towards the end of the interview, The CBC interviewer said that he couldn't "have [O'Toole] on the CBC without asking you about your policy for the CBC ... why would you seek to reduce the number of journalism outlets in the country when the industry is widely seen as being in a bit of a crisis?"

O'Toole's response, which was cut out by the CBC,  went as follows: "What we wanna do with the English [CBC] television is privatize. What we don't need is Canadians spending millions of dollars to create The Family Feud Canada edition."

"Is that where taxpayers' money should really be going?", asked O'Toole.

CBC is the real issue

On Friday's episode of The Ezra Levant Show, Spencer Fernando of SpencerFernando.com joined me to discuss Justin Trudeau's involvement in the WE Charity scandal, and what happens when the media gets put on the Trudeau payroll too. 

As Spencer said: 

"If you know a scandal is going to come out, then you release it first. You try to beat the story, and you try to get it to someone you think is going to be supportive or friendly. The real issue is the CBC — we all pay for it — it's not supposed to be friendly to friends of the Liberal Party. So the fact that they even felt like the CBC would be friendly in and of itself, that's a pretty serious problem."

WATCH the clip and see what Spencer has to say about how the story went to CBC's house Liberal, who managed to tie Justin Trudeau's most recent scandal to Stephen Harper of all people. 

CBC fell for misleading poll

Recently, anti-Israel groups in Canada commissioned a deceptive “push poll” in an effort to manipulate views about Israel’s sovereignty application of Judea and Samaria (wrongly dubbed “annexation”) under the guise of conducting an opinion poll. 

Not surprisingly, mainstream media outlets like CBC Radio-Canada fell for the misleading poll and gave it undue coverage.

CBC Falsely Claims Israel is “Annexing Parts of the Palestinian Territories”

With Israel’s pending decision to apply sovereignty to Judea and Samaria, Canadian media outlets devoted considerable coverage, much of it was misleading and lacked context, while some reports contained outright falsehoods.

Case in point, on June 24, CBC Radio’s flagship World at Six program aired a feature-length segment by former Mideast Bureau Chief, Margaret Evans, which was replete with errors and which lacked vital context about Israel’s plans.

Do We Really Need the CBC as it is Today?

I believe that when the CBC began, it was absolutely essential at almost any cost. It was one of the only mediums of communication, and for many parts of Canada it was the only television available. It was undeniably a key means of getting information out from coast-to-coast, and held great cultural value in terms of defining Canada a country. I believe it certainly justified its fairly high cost to the public purse in times past… wait for it… *sound of other shoe dropping*… Unfortunately for the CBC, the world we live in today is not the world of yesteryear. 

The CBC has consistently lost market share to their private rivals that do not benefit from a taxpayer subsidy. This fact alone dictates that people have voted with their television remotes already. 

I have several friends in the journalism industry, and they all report the same reality – that everyone wants a CBC job because they are better-paying and much more cushy in terms of benefits and expectations. While this might be great for the unionized workers at CBC, it is definitely not advantageous to the average Canadian. Nor is it fair to the other networks that compete with the CBC. 

We don’t have to do away with the CBC entirely, just pair it down and call it what it really is. Why are we trying to fund an entity to compete with the legitimate businesses? Instead, let’s allow the CBC to become a specialized niche channel that is a Canadian version of PBS.

CBC journalist bizarre tweet

In a bizarre tweet on Thursday, CBC journalist Rosemary Barton exclaimed "Huzzah!" in response to the news that Trudeau's Liberal Party has surged in polls due to the coronavirus pandemic.

Canadian political Twitter was quick to react to Barton's inappropriate and apparently partisan cheer.

Barton tried to clean up her mess by tweeting a clarification that she simply jsut loves the poll tracker itself and not the favourable result for Trudeau ...

Barton has been at the centre of other controversies regarding her bias. She famously took a selfie with Justin Trudeau that was roundly mocked around the country, and she was a plaintiff in a lawsuit by the CBC against the Conservative Party during the last election.
