It is in precisely this context that our recent independent study on the CBC’s coverage of the Israel-Hamas war was produced. An impartial public broadcaster should not consistently frame a conflict with a one-sided, decontextualized narrative. Most notably, CBC repeatedly platformed Independent Jewish Voices, an anti-Israel group that does not represent the majority of Canada’s Jewish community. This raises a fundamental question: why would a public broadcaster rely on a non-representative organization to speak for Canadian Jewry? The result is not diversity of perspective, but a systematic distortion of how Jewish public opinion is presented to Canadians.
