98% of viewers look at something other than CBC news, why are we paying billions for this shit?
Carney’s debt interest charges cost each Canadian $1,300 this year.
Only brain dead people or parasites getting something for nothing would vote Liberal or NDP to continue this bullshit.
CBC hiring more suits than reporters
The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation takes billions in taxpayer money, yet CTF records show it continues to buoy its bureaucracy rather than hiring journalists to fulfill its mandate.
The CBC employed 745 staff with “journalist” or “reporter” in their job title in 2021 — that number had dropped to 649 by 2025.
Even journalist-adjacent roles like editors, producers and hosts declined between 2021 and 2025.
While the number of journalists employed by the state broadcaster fell, the number of other bureaucrats grew.
Roles such as “administrators,” “advisors,” “analysts” and sales staff all increased steadily during the same period.
Management positions saw the steepest growth, with titles like “national director,” “project lead,” “senior manager” and “supervisor” leading the surge.
These trends undermine the CBC’s long-standing claim that its journalism justifies its existence. Despite bureaucratic bloat and fewer journalism positions, the CBC continues to promote its news coverage as a reason it deserves to take more than $1 billion from you every year.
Plus, CBC News Network accounts for only about 1.8 per cent of TV audience share.
