TORONTO — The Canadian Broadcasting Corp. and Radio-Canada will eliminate about 600 jobs and an additional 200 vacancies will go unfilled as it contends with a $125-million budget shortfall. Along with the job cuts, CBC will be reducing its English and French programming budgets, including about $40 million in independent production commissions and program acquisitions. In its 2022-23 fiscal year, CBC's television advertising revenues amounted to $288.6 million, with $215.5 million from TV advertising and $73.1 million from digital marketing. However, the Liberal government has hinted that it will cap the amount of money CBC and Radio-Canada could get under the Google deal. CBC has also been affected by Facebook and Instagram owner Meta blocking its Canadian users from accessing news content in recent months.

The public broadcaster says CBC and Radio-Canada will each cut about 250 jobs, with the balance of the layoffs coming from its corporate divisions like technology and infrastructure. Along with the job cuts, CBC will be reducing its English and French programming budgets, resulting in fewer renewals and acquisitions, new television series, episodes of existing shows and digital original series. It attributed the cuts to rising production costs, declining television advertising revenue and fierce competition from the digital giants. At the end of March, CBC had some 6,500 permanent employees, about 2,000 temporary workers and roughly 760 contract staff.

Already, media reports have been circulating including one from La Presse revealing that Canada’s public broadcaster is looking to eliminate up to 700 positions. News of this major announcement comes in the midst of a reckoning in Canada’s legacy media landscape as traditional broadcasters struggle to adapt to a changing media environment. However, the bill has been extremely controversial leading Meta to block all news content from Canadian publishers from their platforms on Facebook and Instagram. Google has been more receptive to working with the government and recently struck a deal that would see the tech giant pay $100 million a year to Canadian publishers. Details of how that money will be distributed and which Canadian media publishers, including the CBC, will benefit from those dollars is still to be determined.
