Mr. Speaker, the Conservatives are going to cut another $45 million from CBC/Radio-Canada.
That does not bode well for regional news coverage, given that 657 full-time jobs were already cut in April. Recently, because of a lack of resources, RDI did not even go to Lac-Mégantic to cover an important announcement. If RDI is not even able to cover an event that is 250 kilometres from Montreal, they are not going to be going to Abitibi.
When will the minister promise to support regional news coverage by stopping her attacks on CBC/Radio-Canada?
