I’ve alluded to this asinine socialist thinking before but the stink is still in the room (hat tip: Hedplug):
Senate report to propose ad-free CBC, limits on media ownership, sources say
By JOAN BRYDEN
OTTAWA (CP) – A Senate report on the state of Canada’s media will recommend that CBC-TV become a truly public, commercial-free broadcaster, The Canadian Press has learned.The report, to be released Wednesday, will also recommend measures to prevent private media conglomerates from dominating newspaper, radio and television audiences in a single market.
[…] The CBC proposal would mean the federal government would have to boost the corporation’s almost $1-billion annual budget to make up for the loss of advertising revenue. The CBC currently makes about $400 million a year from ads, which the report recommends be gradually phased out.
Liberals are so “progressive” that they’ve now gone full circle, did a u-ee, flipped-out, are and currently travelling backwards.
PTBC was founded by Mr. Johannesen in 2000.
