I'll give you my reasoning as to why I think, at the margins, it can be contradictory.
Whenever you speak of values, you are speaking of a kind of bias or point of view. And when you're speaking of objectivity, you're speaking more about a factual kind of presentation. Now it could be that the CBC is simply reflecting Canadian values when it comes to the kind of society we want to live in, in terms of having social safety nets and so on and so forth. I'm looking here at some findings from a study, which I believe people have been quoting, in which, in the fall of 2006, CBC/Radio-Canada received the support of nine in ten Canadians on all of the following indications: whether the broadcaster was essential, whether it was trusted, whether it was comprehensive, and so on. I mean, we're talking about numbers in the 90s. So I don't think you can have it both ways.
