'Constant Bolshevik Crap'
PING!
CBC=Canadaians Broadcasting Communism
The CBC is dead - in the name of humanity, bury it!
The only thing I watch is "Coronation Street".
Amazing how Lefties in Canada are so much the same as American lefties. Even though Harper announces funding a new AIDS vaccine building, Lefties turn around and cry that there need more funding from government (don't Lefties realize where Government money comes from?) to support researchers, sort of like welfare supports other people who can't find a job.
You'd think Lefties would be happy for the new AIDS vaccine research and other aids drug manufacturing building, and raise money privately for research, where near 100% of it goes directly to "research" (that always says they are close, but need more money) rather than have government take it from their pockets, waste most of it within government bureaucracy, and fund fewer researchers.
Take the Money from CBC Harper, you can kill two birds with one stone.
That's because CTV and CBC are so far left, nobody can bear to watch it, and the constant Christian slamming, terrorist praising and PC ness. Global National at least makes an attempt to be a little less leftist.
They still have that on? Last time I watched a whole day of CBC (in the early 60's), they had that on.
That's only part of it. The fact that Global National airs at suppertime while CTV National is on at 11pm makes a huge difference.
My bride loves this British production, along with Antiques Road Show. British products are the only entertaining shows on the CBC, apart from HNIC.
Particularly awful are the CBC Lifer comedy shows, which lack all wit, humour, charm or novelty; and consist largely of brutal assaults on common decency, capitalism, and George Bush. When one recalls the genius of earlier CBC personalities such as Wayne & Shuster, and the flood of Canadian comics to Hollywood, this is very depressing.
Give the CBC a decent burial - then drive a stake through its shrivelled marxist heart.
Yep, CBC still carries it. There's always hell to pay with the fans whenever they bounce it around the schedule. Their phone system nearly melted down the day they decided to catch up with the UK broadcasts by skipping two years' worth of episodes.
My grandmother, who lived in Canada, used to always watch that. She could never, EVER miss her show. I thought that when she died, she was the last viewer, and they would have taken it off the air.
This is not to start a fight here, but if the federal government funds the CBC, why does this government seem to have no control over what goes over the CBC's air? It just doesn't seem right just to throw taxpayer money at them and just turn around and let them do as they please. I read Mark Steyn's article about the latest outrage - Little Mosque - and I was seriously disappointed in the current government letting this go forward if they have the power to stop it.
Any way, the promos for the 11PM news last night were hyping Algor. His rock concerts, I think.
As for the CBC, I do try to listen to the weekly "Quirks & Quarks" on the radio. As long as they stick to real science, it can be quite informative.
Oh, and about "Hockey Night in Canada"? During the hockey strike, they'd host movies the middle of a hockey rink.
Harper's only had a year to do anything so far, and with a minority government at that. The CBC is a beast with many heads (and several left hands). It'll take a Conservative majority government before anything substantial can be done.
For now, Harper has bigger fish to fry (like the Taliban)...
1. Let Rupert Murdoch buy the friggin' thing.
2. Let him turn it into Fox Canada, eh?
3. And, of course, abolish all subsidies and related taxes.
The CBC, is that still around? I haven't watched it since the early 70's when I lived in no mans land, and it was the only station I got. Was bad then. I can't imagine it has gotten any better. They must have been heart broken when Harper was elected. LOL
I truly hope they go the way of the dinosaur.
