CBC to create “joint programming committee”
In a report to staff [internal link only], CBC president Hubert Lacriox revealed that he plans to create a “joint programming committee” to focus on content and programming across all platforms and both English and French services. “It will absolutely not be involved in decision making on schedules,” he said. “But it will have a decision-making role on cross-cultural content, programs and projects.”
Lacroix will chair the committee for the first six months, and then the chair will rotate between the heads of both English and French media (Richard Stursberg and Sylvain Lafrance).
Membership has not yet been determined.

I must say it took some nerve to torpedo the orchestra right when you are in the process of consigning classical programing to scrap heap of history. I am appalled that you are cancelling Music & Co. and Disc Drive. My fellow Vancouverites are very angry about the orchestra and your appalling was front page news in the third largest city in Vancouver. We are fighting in Afghanistan to stop the Taliban from destroying the fine arts and culture – so why at home are you doing the very thing our soldiers are dying for? Shame on you!
CBC is aligned with the Taliban?
I never thought of that before.
You may have a point.
I agree with James’ sentiments, but not his logic.
