Speaking specifically from our experience trying to promote and support world music artists from diverse cultures, we've received tremendous support from our local CBC, CBC Toronto, but as changes in the CBC have meant the cutback of some programs, we felt that effect. When Canada Live would frequently come to the club and record emerging musicians from India, Cuba, wherever, and then broadcast them nationally, that was a very important way of reaching new audiences, and we miss that.
