Madam Speaker, if I could have, I would have supported the hon. member's subamendment if it had been in the proper form.
Restoring what we used to call “the suppertime news” to local communities is an essential part of a healthy democracy, as is a news service that can be provided in a way that gives Canadians a shared context. That helps us minimize the impact of disinformation from social media.
I wonder if the hon. member wants to expand on the benefits of fully funding the CBC to provide commercial-free public affairs and television news.
