Mr. Speaker, last week, while talking about CBC funding, the Deputy Prime Minister said, and I quote: "What makes it difficult, every time we seek new avenues of funding, is the block we run into, the Bloc Quebecois".
I would like to remind the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Canadian Heritage that the Bloc Quebecois is the only party fighting for maintaining the mandates of the CBC, the NFB and Telefilm Canada, but that we are opposed to a CBC tax.
My question is for the Deputy Prime Minister. As the CBC faces cuts amounting to $150 million over two years, could the heritage minister finally tell us how she intends to go about funding this crown corporation?
