Original Toronto Star caption: Bernard Ostry, Chairman of TVOntario argues that if the CBC is allowed to die, the whole system of public broadcasting could go with it. Public broadcasting is a public good -- like education, like our highways, like proper medical care. It is up to the public to ensure that it isn't allowed to wither -- or, in the worst case, be taken away from them.
