Since they have not been under the Access to Information Act, Radio-Canada and CBC certainly have been seeing a lot of requests because they've been underaccountable for so long. Therefore they should not be surprised.
The fact that they were not prepared we found surprising. There is no such thing as missing or not having enough economic means to be respectful to Canadians. This piece of legislation was announced, and therefore Radio-Canada spending zillions of dollars should be in a position to answer.
So there's no such thing as surprising. It spent hundreds of thousands of dollars having parties in Toronto during the Toronto International Film Festival. They should dedicate this money to the Canadian people to be able to be accountable for the money they're spending.
