minus-squareUnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up12·8 days ago I’m not sure it’s fair to call this a cut 2026-27: $1,383,252,311 2025-26: $1,425,237,411 (later rose to $1,575,237,411) ($191,985,100) I would call a reduction of $191M in annual funding a cut. CBC’s funding is almost exactly what it was 2 years ago. Now adjust for inflation.

If you win the lottery one year and not the next, it would be absurd to complain that you’ve lost income. https://www.thewirereport.ca/2026/03/02/liberals-discontinue-temporary-funding-supports-for-cbc/
