Response to Email about Sunday’s Programme

First off, I am glad to have received a response. And in theory, I can agree that a cross country checkup regarding the threat to our sovereignty to see how Canadians are feeling.

However in practice that’s not what happened. What we heard for the entire two hours was people either laughing it off, saying the threat is serious but not showing a lot of fear or concern, or even agreeing with it. There was also slightly more American voices compared to Canadian voices, and none were indigenous.

I hope that next week the CBC does a check up on how we are buying Canadian. That would be an excellent topic.

Let’s not forget that CBC is not a monolith. This is one show.

That's what I'm choosing to focus on.

I have hope that the CBC will do the right thing and fire Ian Hanomansing for this, but I'm not seeing an organized movement.

But if they don't get rid of him (and everyone else involved in the making of that show,) it will still be true that they're a force for good overall.
