Thank you, Madam Chair.
Mrs. Bouchard, in your discussion with Ms. Gainey earlier, you addressed the issue of CBC/Radio-Canada's responsibility for protecting and developing regional news services. It wasn't just about the services of the public broadcaster. It was also about local news businesses.
I find the idea that was raised very interesting. We haven't talked about it very much, but I think it's excellent. The idea would be to share resources and infrastructure with small regional news businesses, which have few resources, particularly community radio and television stations, or even weeklies, which can't afford to make the digital transition.
Do you think that CBC/Radio-Canada could, in fact, share resources and infrastructure to enable these small essential news media to cover regional news?
Do you think that could be part of the role you play as a public broadcaster?
