Oh gee - who could have known that an oligopolistic corporation would put short-term profits ahead of the common good? Our politicians should have considered the parable of the scorpion and the frog as they let the likes of Bell and Rogers gobble up our independent media and telecoms. These corpos will make promise after promise and renege on them the moment it becomes advantageous.
Aaaand we have the Conservatives, who I’m sure will form government next election, consistently chomping at the bit to gut the CBC.
