Don’t you already know what is happening in your town? Aren’t you happy to know what’s going on elsewhere?
I’m inundated with news from elsewhere. There’s tonnes of coverage from dozens of outlets about international, national, and provincial news.
If I want to know about my MP, MPP, town councilors, mayor, school board, or anything else, I guess I can go to their meetings or office hours?
The point is that CBC is relatively neutral. There is a small liberal bias, in the sense that conservative generally aren’t engaging with proper arguments, but it’s generally not as biased as other sources.
