Heritage minister says CBC is needed with Elon Musk’s ‘meddling’ in Canadian politics
January 14, 2025
Elon Musk’s “meddling” in politics and recent changes at Meta to eliminate fact-checking make Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre’s promise to defund the CBC even more consequential, said Heritage Minister Pascale St-Onge.She said the issue isn’t about left or right-wing politics, or “even if you like the CBC or not.”“It’s about talking about killing one of the most important sources of information for Canadians at a time where we know that the information system is controlled by foreign billionaires,” St-Onge said in an interview. “And to me, it’s very preoccupying to see that [Poilievre] doesn’t understand that.”

St-Onge has long been a proponent of the CBC. Saying that we have to fear MUSK is just her, once again, crying wolf. She will soon be relieved of her position and Canada will be free of the CBC propaganda.
