I don't think a private company could do the same thing. Radio-Canada or the CBC has a mandate to cover all of Canada. It is already set up. Why break something that is working? It may be working badly, because it doesn't have enough money, but why break something that is working and start over with something that we aren't sure will work?
And also, how are you going to make sure that they are really going to provide something that's good quality? I don't know how you do that.
