    I adore CBC. I can’t and won’t live without them.

    In the morning I awake to CBC radio and continue throughout my commute.

    I then listen to The Current as I press into my day.

    I listen to the news on my way home. I’ll pickup Front Burner, the National and Marketplace.

    I edify my mind and soul with CBC ideas in the evening. Nahlah Ayed is my celebrity crush.

    I entertain myself with the debaters, hockey night in Canada, quirks and quarks.

    I get my Music from CBC Radio 3 mostly, but Marvin’s room and Afterdark are there too.

    I can think of no other institution more important to myself and the country than the CBC.

    Canadian Music is in Danger

    This is nothing new.

    That is exactly why the CanCon regulations were created in the first place - to prevent Canadian music from being completely steamrolled by the US music industry juggernaut.

    What a hugely important message. At a time when our sovereignty is being challenged by American imperialism, we are not going to survive by slashing one of our most important public institutions for short-term gain. I’m not even sure what there would be to gain, anyway.

    I’m consuming as much Cryptopsy as I can… What else do you want me to do?!
