Mr. Speaker, I will just take another run at it. Maybe this time she will put her earpiece in and listen.
Richard Stursberg, executive vice-president of CBC English Services, said that if the government had given the CBC bridge financing, it still would have had to cut 800 jobs. This is a decision by the management of the CBC.
Our government kept our campaign commitment. We said we would maintain or increase funding for the CBC. We have done that in every single budget. The Liberals said that they would maintain or increase funding for the CBC. They cut $414 million from the CBC and cut 4,000 jobs. We have no lessons to learn from the Liberals on the CBC.
