IS the CBC worth saving…

Just a tad…

Beyond my love for the CBC, I just love my Toronto Public Library system. Public access to public discussion. After finding and posting Malcom Gladwell’s interviews I searched to see if this discussion was captured because I had missed getting out to see it live. Happy it was. Next, I’d like to see a discussion about the present and future of CBC Music.

  - ELECTION: Keesmaat carefully considered October 16, 2018
    Like any good double entendre, a vote cast is a form of expression that can — and arguably should — carry multiple meanings. You can both vote for one candidate and against another, or you can place a strategic bet on a particular outcome. Your ballot can carry protest, fury, or encouragement. It speaks in […] The post ELECTION: Keesmaat carefully considered […]
