Tim Harper: Less will be Moore’s way of dealing with the CBC

[CHIMO]

It was the CBC’s 75th birthday Wednesday, but at the weekly Conservative caucus meeting there was no cake.

There were no Conservative tributes to the public broadcaster in the House of Commons, no press releases, not even a wink, just an icy silence as the CBC filled the airwaves with vintage images of everything from Barbara Frum to Mr. Dressup.

In fact, as it enters its 76th year, the public broadcaster again finds itself under daily assault.

It may seem like it was always thus.
