Canadian Media Guild VP Lisa Lareau on the status of the CBC

“What we do see is an increasingly empty Broadcasting Centre.  We see empty offices.  We see one empty studio, another one used by a former network competitor (Rogers) and a few more slated to be shuttered by next year.   We see whole areas of expertise parcelled out (documentary production, weather, hockey).   We see a single permanent reporter in a city the size of Fredericton. We listen to talk about selling the Broadcasting Centre itself.  And today all of us will bear witness as hundreds more people across the country get notices that their jobs are redundant. I could go on.”
