Formerly, yes--ex-broadcasters, recovering broadcasters.
You can tell when a broadcaster puts heat behind a project or heat behind an initiative. What's required from the CBC is to take on the mantle of saying we will provide this leadership for the industry, something that hasn't happened in a long time. What that looks like is to say we'll commission new shows widely; we'll set an agenda that speaks specifically for the kind of programming we want to see--and we can talk about that at another time, or now if you like---and that makes sure the schedule is refreshed regularly and that the schedule is open and accessible to all forms of the population we have, from one side of the country to the other, and that we use the opportunity as the CBC. We have the opportunity to talk to the children of Canada with one voice at one time, and at the moment we're not saying anything. We're not choosing to say anything.
