I am a lifelong (since the '60s) CBC listener. I have become truly disappointed and have almost ceased to listen because I believe that CBC no longer represents all Canadians - just those in the highest political seats of our fine land. I am not convinced that CBC should continue to be 100% publicly funded (they were not always) - nor do I agree with the use of the funds that they are currently getting (bonuses when they are running a deficit). Too top heavy and no longer present a center position or less biased account of Canada. Sooooo discouraging and I don't think that a lot of Canadians understand this. I am a proud Canadian and will continue respect and engage politely with all Canadians regardless of their rally cries.
