Miss Korea Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 35 minutes ago, Psycho_Path said: Math? Math isn't good enough? If it costs more to produce food (due to higher costs of heating using carbon related energy of which costs more due to the tax) then farmers have to charge more. Besides, the fact that if you go grocery shopping you'll know that food prices keep going up for Canadian produce. This isn't as much going to affect imported goods (though it will, due to the increased cost of gas which makes shipping the food cost more, depending on where the gas is obtained and how much is needed to get the food to various municipalities). You just wait a few years and see the results. The latest hike happened a month ago. The effects won't necessarily be obvious immediately. Going to have to wait for that data. It's not good enough show me harsh evidence. I just told you not try and make a common sense argument because I can pick apart to shreds. What I want is some hard ass statistics or study that proves what you're saying. Because the stats are all there. And they say you're completely full of shit.

Because he has reasons for all of them, some excuses better than others. You are nothing more than a liar spreading misinformation at this point. So spit it out. What are his excuses for all four of them? After reading enough of your posts, I know you can't handle other opinions, but that doesn't mean I'm a liar and spreading misinformation.

It still received funding under previous Conservative governments as well. And any additional funding it has received recently is also under a minority government, which requires multiple party support to even pass. And as @Miss Korea already pointed out, the VAST majority of news is very much right (and America) leaning. The CBC itself is actually pretty moderate.

Bob Long Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Like they say, just listen to the people running for office if you want to know what they will do. Skippy is planning to use the notwithstanding clause to push through new laws. Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre says he would use "whatever tools the Constitution allows" to pass criminal laws if his party forms the next government. Speaking to the Canadian Police Association on Monday, Poilievre promised to implement more stringent requirements for bail and make it harder for convicted murderers to transfer out of maximum security prisons. "All of my proposals are constitutional," Poilievre said. "We will make them constitutional, using whatever tools the Constitution allows me to use to make them constitutional. I think you know exactly what I mean." https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/poilievre-notwithstanding-clause-1.7188964 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gurn Posted May 2 Share Posted May 2 Iirc: CBC gets funding, because it operates under different rules, than the other major networks. don't they have to make and show more Canadian content, and be more widely available than the other 'biggies'?

The big money private media companies have no interest in tiny little locations that won't drive revenue profits .... Much like how we are seeing most community newspapers bought up and then closed with a regional paper being forced ....
