Absolutely. I have, in the past, both before parliamentary committees and in op-ed pieces in newspapers—and a few minutes ago—talked about the importance of the role that CBC and Radio-Canada play for minority language communities. It's a role that is often either ignored or misunderstood by people who are in a linguistic majority situation, where they are able to see CBC or Radio-Canada as just one station on the dial of maybe 100 or 150 stations.
But if you are living in an isolated community, the Radio-Canada station if you are outside Quebec, or the English-language community stations that CBC provides in Quebec, is a critical lifeline for the vitality of those communities. I am full of admiration for the role that CBC reporters, journalists, and hosts play in those minority communities, where they often go above and beyond the role of simply reading the news or hosting a morning show by playing a critical community animation role.
