I used to enjoy watching CBC as a young kid growing up, particularly when Don Cherry would host hockey night in Canada almost every saturday. Furthermore, their "marketplace" branch of journalism merits some respect. I appreciate how they help to expose common scams in today's society, such as how tow truck drivers try to approach victims of car accidents on the highway to offer service (Which is illegal for them to do in Ottawa, check out the 100 meter policy bylway and call CAA if that ever happens to you).
However, when it comes to reporting on politics, they deserve the worst of publicity. A very clear left wing bias is demonstrated by their agenda, which is problematic given that they receive $1.4B (CAD) from the feds, and are designated as Canada's leading broadcaster whose mission is to "unite" Canadians from coast to coast. During the pandemic in particular, their media practices have caused far more division than unity. Extremism exists on both ends of the spectrum (Left and Right) but when their employees call out abbrassive behaviour on the right (i.e White supremacists), while NEVER calling out craziness on the other side (i.e Antifa goons vandalizing stuff who always hide their faces) the bias becomes notably obvious. Any news orgranization that is priveleged enoguh to have our tax funded support, and therefore never has to worry about bankruptcy for that matter, should also have a deep RESPONSIBILITY to provide neutral unbiased reporting. If that day ever comes in the future when they change their angle, then I might modify my review. Otherwise as of now, I am of the opinion that they should be DEFUNDED, so that the 1.4B can be used to improve our roads, health care system and military equipment.
While some people might counter argue that Rebel News has right wing bias (which is obviously true) they don't deserve the same scrutiny because they aren't funded by our taxes, and therefore they don't have the...

This facility serves as the headquarters for the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation's (CBC) English-language services and includes studios for its television and radio programs, plus spaces for local and regional French-language productions. Completed in 1992 and occupied in 1993, the distinctive building is known for its modern architecture, innovative design, and vibration isolation system built on 3,000 rubber pads to protect its sensitive studios from external vibrations. Today we had a small touring around CBC Studios. It was fun exploring and learning about building and work they do.
The complex houses numerous radio and television studios, with television production on the upper floors and radio on the lower levels.
The building rests on thousands of rubber pads to minimize noise and vibrations from street traffic and the future subwayđđź
The structure is a significant architectural landmark in Toronto, noted for its creative design and...
   Read moreThe CBC's approach to news coverage has raised concerns about impartiality, with many viewers perceiving a strong bias toward the Liberal government. There is a growing belief that its reporting leans in favor of certain narratives, influenced by government funding.
As a taxpayer-funded organization, CBC has a responsibility to provide balanced and objective journalism. However, many Canadians do not like what they see, as bias appears evident in some anchors and reporters. At times, it seems that certain viewpoints are taken personally, and if a perspective does not align with the reported narrative, it is dismissed. This concern is not just limited to the contentâit can also be seen in the staff who report the news, further reinforcing skepticism about the networkâs neutrality.
Over time, this perception has contributed to doubts regarding CBCâs credibility. Many argue that its approach resembles editorialized journalism rather than strictly fact-based reporting. The recent election results reflect a division in public trust, with some citizens questioning the objectivity of mainstream media. As awareness grows, Canadians continue to scrutinize the role of government-funded media in shaping...
