This is the entire problem that the right has with the CBC wrapped up in a tidy package. It is centrist, slightly left biased, highly factual, professional journalism. The CBC is internationally respected. The right hates that. The right hates the truth. The right hates neutrality. The only reason the CBC is seen as left biased is that the extreme right has pulled the center to the the right. They can't force the CBC to become a right wing propaganda network like Fox "News" so they want to destroy it.

When your voter base is used to the Toronto Sun, with a page-one dominated by headlines like "TEEN KILLED BY PERV TOT!" in 72-point bold type (followed by the obligatory T&A on page three), it makes standards seem like "bias".
True.
BBC put out a good article recently explaining the rationale: Why BBC doesn't call Hamas militants 'terrorists'
The BBC has a similar policy against the word Terrorism. It's a significant point for impartiality that they preserve a neutral point of view; and have for decades.
Can the conservatives please deliver a mathematically sound, coherent plan for managing Canada, or are they really going to potentially win on a "hair guy sucks" platform?
It is gonna be the second one and you know it.
Fuck Conservatives, and fuck Israel too while we're at it.
I get condemned when i say "fuck israel". But Fuck Israel.
Hating on an apartheid gov't isn't wrong.
Someone else twisting that into the argument that you're promoting antisemitism is wrong.
That's great that these MPs want to educate themselves. They could learn a lot. By "compel" I'm sure they mean something like "inspire" these people to come and share their experience and research with them in a respectful philosophical exchange. And by "defend" they are probably thinking of the clever Socratic traditions of inquiry.
I'm glad they're on top of what's important to us!

They are constantly annoyed by CBC being impartial, this isnβt new
