MODERATORS
 
With competition from streaming services, a quickly-changing broadcast and news landscape, and diminished trust in the public broadcaster, the future of the CBC is as murky as ever.
Tara Henley, a former CBC producer who now runs a popular Substack, said the CBC lost trust when Canadians started to see it as overly politicized.
Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre made defunding the CBC a centrepiece of his leadership campaign, sparking raucous chants in support of the idea at his rallies across the country.

Anyone who views the cbc as "overly politicized" does not watch it. Its news programs are internationally recognized as being very balanced and honestly very bland. (Which is a good thing)

I think non-corporate owned news media is the bigger threat to conservatives here.
