Mr. Speaker, I congratulate my colleague, who does an excellent job as official opposition heritage critic.
I would like to hear him talk more about independence, about the freedom of expression that CBC/Radio-Canada has always had and that is the basis for art, culture and artistic expression in all its forms, not only in Canada, but in all democratic countries. It is so important that it is even reflected in administration. Interference is unacceptable, especially when it has to do with a corporation that represents the interests of all Canadians from coast to coast to coast.
I would like to hear my colleague talk more about how important it is for an organization like the CBC to be independent.
