I blame the federal government that ties funding to "diversity and inclusion" to the detriment of everything else. It cause ridiculous situations like the one described in that article https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/canada/minority-professor-denied-grants-because-he-hires-on-merit-people-are-afraid-to-think/ar-AAR4KHE https://www.msn.com/en-ca/news/canada/minority-professor-den...
So if the funding for the CBC is allocated on similars concerns, her colleagues are probably scared. That would also explain why they produced this mostly absurd list of banned words https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/words-and-phrases-commonly-used-offensive-english-language-1.6252274 https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/ottawa/words-and-phrases-comm... , a list that include violent words like brainstorm, lame, grandfathered and tribe. The CBC used to be a bastion of integrity and reason, now it is a novlang factory.
