Public broadcasting in a changing world
CBC/Radio-Canada serves the second largest and one of the most diverse countries in the world. Our new five-year strategy, 2015: Everyone, Every way, launched on February 1, 2011, recognises that the public broadcaster can't be all things to all people. In its scope, however, it stakes the claim that we can be something for, and mean something to, every Canadian. Whether it's connecting them to this country, to their communities, or to each other as individuals with their own realities and interests, CBC/Radio-Canada will be there — for everyone, every way.
CBC/Radio-Canada is adjusting to a $115 million reduction to its appropriation, delivered by the federal government in its March 2012 budget. This reduction translates into $200 million in financial pressures when unavoidable costs (such as taxes, content rights and rent costs) and our Strategy 2015 investments are added in. Despite these significant budget constraints, we will continue to implement Strategy 2015, but at a slower pace.
