Do you mean the “defund the CBC” movement? Yes, for sure. I've been a journalist for most of my adult life, largely in mainstream media, in and out of newsrooms, largely here in Ottawa. I can tell you that there wasn't really a serious movement to defund the CBC 15 years ago, maybe not even 10 years ago. Now you literally see it on T-shirts, bumper stickers, etc.
People are pushing for the state broadcaster to be defunded for two reasons. First, it's a huge waste of money, period; $1.4 billion is an astonishing amount of money. Second, journalists shouldn't be paid by the government. It doesn't matter if the journalists are right-wing, left-wing or space aliens. They shouldn't be paid by the government, because it's a direct conflict of interest, so there is definitely a movement that's growing.
