Show Notes

The CTF was SUMMONED to testify at the Heritage Committee on Parliament Hill in Ottawa.

The topic: The CBC!

The Canadian Taxpayers Federation told the committee full of politicians that it was time to DEFUND the CBC for three key reasons:

The CBC costs Canadians too much money.
Nearly nobody is watching it.
Journalists should not be paid by the government.

Most of the MPs were NOT happy to see us.

Find out more with the CTF’s Federal Director Franco Terrazzano as he speaks with Alberta Director Kris Sims about what it was like to walk into the lions den.
