Mr. Speaker, we are looking for the minister's action on this, not her thanks. Here and Now has a 64% market share and 157,000 viewers. This contrasts sharply with the Toronto equivalent which commands a mere 2% of the market and a paltry 36,000 viewers in that large city. I can understand that the CBC might have to tighten up in markets where its programs are not widely popular, but how can the minister justify throwing out our baby with Toronto's bath water?
In the House of Commons on June 2nd, 2000. See this statement in context.
