		<description>I&#039;m listening to a old BNW profile on Daniel Johnston as I type this. Those of you unfamiliar with Johnston&#039;s oeuvre, go to Wikipedia. I guarantee I won&#039;t hear anything like this on Radio 2 after March 19th, and we&#039;re all poorer for that fact.</description>

		<description>Nobody has mentioned the changes to Radio 2 News. I have always relied on CBC for radio news. To reduce bulletins down to 3 or 4 minutes is just plain stupid. All radio stations should reflect the world in which they operate and Radio 2 news services have alweays done that. No longer, it seems. As to the program changes themselves it seems that the only good thing to come out of this will be an all-night music programme. If we can&#039;t have &quot;Music for a While&quot; this is some consolation. Let&#039;s hope it&#039;s mainly classical. It&#039;s very, very hard to combine classical music with&quot;light&quot; music. I already find it hard to listen to Weekender ; Disc Drive and Studio Sparks because of this. It seems this will only get worse. 
Oh well, I shall have to increase my listening time off the web. CBC Radio Two is largely becoming irrelevant. How sad</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve alway condered CBC Radio one of our national treasures. I&#039;ve been listening to both radio services for my entire life but find with each passing year there&#039;s less I can bear. More and more I&#039;m changing to other stations or turning to my CD collection, especially on weekends. And yet so much of the programming is good and I love the wide  variety of music and information presented. 

But I don&#039;t understand the need to drop Music for a While and Northern Lights which are so well suited to their time slots. 

Please put something better than Go! on Saturday mornings or DNTO on the afternoons. These two programmes in particular are just not up to the same standard as the rest of the offering.</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t think the brass have changed enough on R.1. I agree with those who can&#039;t believe BNW was axed, even though I am an older listener (read 50s). I was hoping for a new fresher Saturday afternoon format to replace DNTO. It could still focus on current trends in &quot;pop&quot; culture but the way it is now is tired. Hooray for Jian! He was great this summer when he filled in for Sheila.</description>

		<description>The cancellation of Brave New Waves upsets me greatly. I&#039;ve been listening since 1992, and it woke me up from my commercial radio doldrums. When Winnipeg FINALLY got college radio, I was in heaven, as I would often hear tracks break on BNW before hearing &#039;em on CJUM and CKUW, and vice-versa. It was like, some sort of musical synergy that delighted me to no end.
I don&#039;t know what to say...other than I&#039;m no longer going to have a program that plays music that messes with the conventions of every known genre, sometimes going WAY off the map, often with amazing results. Where am I gonna find a program that satisfies me in such a way? No one else does that! BNW is absolutely irreplaceable.
Now I have a Sirius satellite unit, which I won early last year. I activated it during the summer for a road trip to Minneapolis. Listening to it on the way there was a rather telling activity, as I found myself tuning in to the Backspin and Rawdog stations far more than CBC Radio 3. Why? Between the podcast, the Saturday Night Show and the mixed bag Sunday broadcast, I wasn&#039;t hearing anything new, that&#039;s why. It&#039;s great that New Music Canada is around to give artists exposure, but it&#039;s a shallow pool of talent to draw from. That being said, I still enjoyed listening to the Radio 3 podcast &lt;i&gt;and&lt;/i&gt; the Saturday Night Show &lt;i&gt;and&lt;/i&gt; the R3 30, as the SNS wasn&#039;t held to playing just New Music Canada-safe tunes, and the R3 30&#039;s Craig Norris is a funny mofo.
Remember the concern over whether AIDS Wolf should be played on the Radio 3 podcast? Talk about a non-issue. They were played without any problems on BNW, because they fit right in. I&#039;m troubled with the fact that a group like AIDS Wolf and other &quot;way out there&quot; acts will have one less outlet to showcase their music in an already narrow playing field. 
You&#039;re killing an institution.</description>

		<description>It&#039;s sometimes less about the &quot;show&quot; than the &quot;people.&quot; I understand a lot of  work goes into producing each program, that it&#039;s a team effort and all, but check the comments: most of us rate the listening experience by the host. Why not build around the talent? Use what works best as a launching pad for new programs, not some marketing exec&#039;s chart on age demographics.  Invite the obviously talented ones to a working lunch and ask...what show would YOU suggest?

My votes: Yes to Tom Allen - I like hearing regular guy chat and enthusiasm in the middle of a classical music show. No to Jurgen Gothe but who&#039;s going to wake him up to tell him? Yes to Anna Maria Tremonti, and can anybody really recognize our country in the shipwreck that is Sounds Like Canada? It seems fashionable to rag on Jian Gameshi -- I suspect he&#039;s overexposed in Ontario -- but he aced it this summer with his stint.

A possibly related late afternoon weekday tip: check out the Radio Canada FM station. I allow I don&#039;t understand the commentary, but it&#039;s no matter because the music is great. From gamelan to Coltrane, the kind of surprisingly delightful playlists I would expect from a great public broadcaster.

Finally, any restructuring that cuts out David Wisdom and reduces Eleanor Wachtel&#039;s air time is flawed.</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve learned so much from these postings. My own field is classical music and no, I&#039;m not a musician, I&#039;m a process engineer. But loud and clear are the voices of the disenchanted, from BNW in the one hemisphere to the Josquin-to-Healey-Willan nuts (like me) on the other. By some managerial miracle CBC have alienated all of us at one stroke, surely fodder for Harvard Business Reviews into the forseeable future.

The Vice-President of CBC Radio is Jane Chalmers. The Executive Director of Programming, CBC Radio, is Jennifer McGuire. Write to them at CBC, PO Box 500, Stn A, Toronto M5W 1E6. Yes - letters, those funny old-fashioned things that need stamps. Sort out in your own mind whether you are going to do it now or wait until the changes are implemented.  But whatever you do, write - do not just complain, write. Or be part of the collective wreck of Numenor.

Classical music fans in southern Ontario, remember WNED out of Buffalo at 94.5. And write to CFMX pointing out to them that CBC has reneged or is about to, and wouldn&#039;t this be a magnificent moment to pick up the flag and wave it? I cannot guarantee what reception you will get from CFMX but after the defection of CJRT in 1999 they&#039;re the only other Canadian act in town. 

Anybody got a better idea?</description>

		<description>5 reasons to listen to CBC:

1. Brave New Waves
2. Northern Lights
3. Ideas
4. Radio 3
5. Between the Covers

Congratulations folks, you chopped four of those in one fell swoop.

I can&#039;t believe that in my late twenties I&#039;m being treated like a teenager whose preferences are seen as whimsical and unimportant. What the hell is happening to the CBC? It started when you cancelled counterSpin (and yet refuse to axe The Hour). When all the younger listeners you ignore and assume to addle-headed dolts are in their 50s, they won&#039;t be listening to the stuff you&#039;re leaving on the air. They&#039;ll be listening to the stuff you&#039;re cutting. And they won&#039;t be listening to the CBC.

Well done. You&#039;ve alienated a huge amount of listeners and probably given a bit more validation to conspiracy theories that the CBC is being intentionally gutted as a public body. Happy?</description>

		<description>I&#039;ve been a Radio 3 listener for a few years now and I&#039;ve always felt that when that show hits its stride it&#039;s as good as radio can be.  And who doesn&#039;t have fond memories of discovering Brave New Waves for the first time, and then waking up to classical music and the hourly news.  That&#039;s how I was introduced to CBC Radio.

These shows simply ooze credibility and play an important role in introducing new listeners to public radio.  It&#039;s inexplicable that someone would suggest replacing these shows with, what, anonymous jazz music?  And I like jazz, but come on! I think dead air would be a more appropriate replacement.  

It&#039;s clear now that the presence of these shows on CBC was nothing but an accident rather than part of a strategy to shed the &quot;stuffy&quot; perception of public radio and indoctrinate new listeners.  Leave it to the CBC to completely misunderstand its assets.

I don&#039;t have a satellite receiver and do not plan on getting one.</description>

		<description>Oh my god.
I can&#039;t believe you actually canceled Brave New Waves. This show is more than 20 years old and it kept Canadian music alive.

This is the worst thing I have ever seen coming from CBC...</description>

		<description>Hi Bert -- the changes are going to happen, that&#039;s for sure, but I know the brass are monitoring reaction here and calls/emails/letters to Audience Relations once everything launches to see how people feel about the new programming.</description>

		<description>A small request of moderator Tod Maffin.

Are any of the movers and shakers in CBC Radio listening?

Or will the changes just go ahead anyhow, regardless of how we feel about them?</description>

		<description>Northern Lights going?
That&#039;s disappointing too. It was a really nice program, following on the heels, if i remember, of &quot;That time of the night&quot; with Marjory Doyle. I wish they&#039;d keep it.</description>

		<description>BNW was one of the only reasons I listened to CBc anymore. Ever since they got rid of Radiosonic and Nightlines the whole network has jumped the shark. Bollocks!</description>

		<description>Cancelling Brave New Waves is the Canadian equivalent of cancelling John Peel.  As a lifelong listener, I really can&#039;t support CBC radio anymore, which is a shame since there aren&#039;t any other tolerable radio options either.  The message from management to programmers is clear, though -- success will not go unpunished.</description>

		<description>I am moved, encouraged and in many ways humbled by the passion and enthusiasm brought to these postings. For example, despite being an R2 enthusiast I had never heard of Brave New Waves (probably because it begins some two hours after I am usually in bed and asleep). But surely here is the lesson for CBC programming managers, that elements of CBC Radio programming have a level of support irreducible to questions of demographics and percentage of population. I have been taken to task for suggesting that CBC must appeal to an &quot;elite&quot; but isn&#039;t that exactly what we are seeing here? CBC Radio listeners are not catered to by commercial radio, nor will they ever be. CBC Radio at its best will be there for all to discover when they are ready to discover it. You will never discover who your listeners are until you put out on your network programming inspired by the best and brightest in the world and leavened by the traditions to which music and thought are heir. 

Please: lead, don&#039;t follow.</description>

		<description>I am a brave new waves addict and hope that if the dreaded change (fm to sirrus) occurs that the cbc will inform us and keep the bnw website at least for a link to the new download site....</description>
