Don't Let the Feds Take Over the CBC!

Bill C-60, the Tories’ budget implementation bill, would essentially make Stephen Harper the CBC's new boss.

The independent CBC has been completely separate from governments in power for years, and that's the way it should be. This bill includes a clause that allows Harper's cabinet to approve salaries, working conditions and collective bargaining positions for the CBC, according to The Hill Times.

We don't need a broadcaster for the government. We need an independent, objective team of reporters that will report the facts without fear of consequences. This is how we maintain a democratic society.

Please sign this petition today to oppose the bill C-60 clause that would allow government to interfere with the CBC!
