    “I’m curious as to how the CBC can then claim to be independent if they can’t survive without government dollars,” Thomas said.

    Conservative MP can’t understand that some people can’t be bought.

      And that’s exactly why Conservatives hate the CBC.

      Uhm… These people are morons…

      Gov’t funded doesn’t mean Liberal (party) funded… The CBC gets funding when conservatives are in power as well…

      The fact that conservatives think that funding = favourable coverage says more about them than anything else
