I think there was a huge debate in the last general election, and we all recognize that all the parties had straight positions.
It's very touchy when we talk about funding Radio-Canada/CBC because, as we know, this is a press group, and a press group shall be independent from any political power.
So the responsibility belongs in the hands of all journalists, and when I talk about hands, I talk about the fingers, the ones that hold the pencil, the ones that hone the machine, the ones that write or say something about the actual government. You always have to remember that when you work at CBC—during my 20-year career, I worked there for two years, and I know what I'm talking about—you have to think about the interests of the people, period.
You never have to add any political agenda, but for sure, when you see a huge debate surrounding the financing of this public institution—because it is a public institution—the responsibility belongs to every journalist to be frank, to be honest, to be equal, and to be non-partisan.
