Mr. Lilley did refer to how the CBC's started now running opinion as a regular item of content. Reporting on news is not enough, they want to have columnists, which again runs into territory that traditionally has been what newspapers do. We have something like 16 columnists on The Globe and Mail as full-time columnists, quite apart from freelance. We think people want diversity of opinion, they want to see different opinions, and that's what we feel is part of our forum. CBC now feels it's part of its remit too. I just wonder, like you, where that's heading.
