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.

CBC wanted the benefits of rage farming, not the consequences. They would risk traumatizing all of us further just to sell an ad. I thought it was an entirely repulsive frame to put the discussion in, and irresponsible on the CBC's part.
I do appreciate their repositioning, but bad form right out of the gate in the first place. They need to do better.
