Important to note that the CBC is state-funded and even the previous leader of the ultra left-wing party, Tom Mulcair, has recently accused the CBC of having a heavy left-wing bias.
- morkalork 3y agoRight, who could forget PP asking Elon Musk to get the CBC flagged as state media in the same class as Xinhua and Russia Today.

- belval 3y agoI don't know about heavy but CBC is definitely left-leaning. I feel like that should be curbed with some watchdog for media impartiality (not sure how it could be implemented?) instead of doing away with it entirely. The reality is (at least in Quebec), we don't have much to replace it. This is also a new development in journalism at CBC, older journalists tend to value reporting over opinion pieces, whereas younger journalists feel like it's their "duty" to push their opinion onto the readership which is an extremely toxic ideology.
