Letter: Pierre Poilievre wants to defund CBC? Really!


CBC radio is commercial-free for reasons that Poilievre and much of his following understand but don't like because it removes the ability of corporate advertisers and advertising dollars to control what is broadcast. If Poilievre is so cost-conscious, why haven't the Conservatives proposed cutting the several billion that is subsidizing the enormous profits of the oil and gas industry? If Poilievre wants to reduce the crime rate, why not submit a bill to study and implement universal basic income, or reform our electoral system to a proportional representation model as designed by a citizens’ assembly? The questions are numerous, however, Pierre Poilievre refuses requests for interviews from most mainstream media. Unfortunately, Pierre is a great complainer, but when it comes to real solutions, well, he just doesn't seem to have any.
