less critical today with satellite and streaming services, but still good none the less and in many cases is a local news source preferred over tv.

I assume you mean in a historical case and RAF and LMotP have been off the air for years. (2008 and 2012). And as Acajack states, we each have our own preferences as I find SC and Kim's Convenience both excruciating to watch.

I think in answering the OP's question, we need to ask another question and that is, what role should the CBC play? Is it to "tie us together", produce Canadian stories (that we've likely heard a million times already - Anne!), show Canadian sports (TSN, SN, RDI ???) or something else.

I hardly watch tv, but when I do** I can't imagine why I would watch CBC - no offence, but I just don't know what role it's trying to fill.


** FTR, when I watch tv it's mainly HBO/AMC dramas.
