SC,

Canada cbc.ca +8.9 Billion

My friend's wife works at the CBC and he and all her friends vote Liberal because they think they're helping her keep her job. I guess that is what happens when a low unemployment rate becomes anything 7 and under. (I was wondering who votes Liberal but I found out it is all the people working for gov't and in Canada that is huge, since the Conservatives would cut gov't)

I asked my friend why Canada needed the CBC and he said they make 'important programming' that people 'need to watch'. I pointed out that Public Broadcasting does fine with fundraising and no public money is needed. I then asked him why the CBC does reports on such inane topics as the RCMP Musical Ride instead of perhaps analyzing how Canada's mentally ill have been displaced by the new budget (maybe they've all been hired by the CBC to produce the Musical Ride piece) or analyzing corruption in Canadian politics or Canada's role in world leadership or how English and French Canadians could find a solution to their being dysfunctional.

He said 'Well, noone wants to watch THAT'

Huh? Oh yeah, right, they're all watching Gordinyo on Goonish TV

goonish.tv

Forgot.
