The CBC has 143 executive directors including eight directors of finance, nine directors of legal services and 26 directors of “technology and infrastructure,” according to Access To Information records. Individual pay and benefits were not disclosed though one former executive put his yearly bonus at $80,000: “That requires visionary talent.”

The CBC paid executives millions in Covid bonuses even as management complained of “immense pressure” with crashing ad revenue, records show. Bonuses were the equivalent of nearly $15,000 apiece: “It brings into serious question the judgment of executives in times of crisis.”

The Hub- Commercial enterprise or public broadcaster? The CBC wants it both ways
Just being a public broadcaster isn’t good enough for the CBC.
Our $1.3 billion federal subsidy2 isn’t enough to make the CBC love us back. It wants more.
The deciding panel of five CRTC Commissioners was split. Very broadly, two were inclined to impose strict “conditions of license.” The winning three preferred “expectations,” based on the fact they trusted CBC to do the right thing.
This, then, is how the Great Canadian Broadcasting Game is played.
The CBC, considering itself the CRTC’s equal, pretty much charts its own course—but will take minor directions on relatively inconsequential matters so the commission doesn’t lose face. In exchange, the CRTC stays out of the way as CBC hides a commercial warrior behind the shield of a public broadcaster.

“CBC Kids used 29 trackers to collect data and sent it to 20 advertising companies”
Millions of students in Canada and around the world had their personal information sent to advertisers and data brokers when governments made an abrupt switch to online learning during the pandemic, according to a new report that reveals safety gaps in educational technology.
[…]
CBC Kids, an educational website run by Canada’s public broadcaster, is used as a global case study in the [Human Rights Watch] report, because of how particularly “egregious” the site was in its data-collection practices.
It’s a long report, so I’ve pulled a few paragraphs that stand out.
Across the country, when COVID-19 swept onto Canadian shores in March, 2020, students were forced into online classrooms. Governments turned to educational apps and websites. This gave international corporations that produce this technology an opportunity to tap into the habits of a young captive audience for an extended period of time.
These companies began to collect personal data from children, according to HRW’s research and findings. This included information about who children were, where they were located, what they did in their classrooms, who their family members and friends were and what kinds of devices their caregivers could afford to buy them. If a student searched for something online, doodled on a virtual whiteboard or visited a non-school-related website, that data could be collected.
Most of this was done through tracking technology built into or included with educational apps and websites. With these techniques, which are commonly used by online marketers to build profiles of customers, some educational platforms were able to trail children outside of their virtual classrooms and across the internet, HRW found.
Other ways of collecting children’s data included invisibly tagging them, so that their digital trail was difficult to get rid of. This tracking technique, which is also often used on commercial websites, is particularly invasive when applied to students, HRW said. It works by drawing hidden shapes and text on a webpage that can be connected to a unique numeric identifier for a user’s device. Users cannot eliminate this type of tracking through any ad-blocking software, or by adjusting their web browser privacy settings.
[…]
According to the findings, CBC Kids used 29 trackers to collect data and sent it to 20 advertising companies. CBC Kids also used 15 third-party cookies to send further data to nine advertising technology companies, HRW found. That’s more than five times the median number of cookies and more than four times the median number of trackers installed on the world’s most popular websites.
In its privacy policy, CBC Kids says, “The vast majority of the information you create doesn’t have any indicator of who you are, personally.” But HRW found that CBC Kids had been sending children’s data to companies that publicly say they connect people’s offline identity records to their online activities.
One would think that a report this explosive would merit a stronger headline.

“The Science” Is Different In Canada
Canada is a joke and run by petulant imbeciles.
Sorry to link to the Trudeau Payroll Media Eunuchs at the CBC, but I can barely find any other coverage of this story in the Canadian media.
How much longer will Prime Minister Hairdo continue to punish Canadians who chose not to get the Covid vaccine for whatever reason? It is astonishing how many people in Canada and also in the rest of the world, do not know that Tantrum Trudeau is holding six million Canadians hostage in their own country.
Lies, Damn Lies and Liberal Lies

A number of civil liberties groups are pushing the federal government to allow them to call witnesses and compel sworn testimony during the inquiry into the Trudeau government’s invocation of the Emergencies Act. According to the Canadian Civil Liberties Association, an inquiry that doesn’t involve the major players testifying under oath would be meaningless.

CBC At It Again
For a few days now, the CBC and other members of the bought and paid for media, have been pushing the stories of disgruntled Freedom Convoy participants. As expected the truth is emerging.
Blacklocks vs CBC
Holly Doan – There appears some confusion @CBCNews over inaccurate, irresponsible #FreedomConvoy coverage so we unlocked a story for all to read. We stand by every word.
Things You’re Gonna See On The CBC
The CBC has retracted a second story it reported about the Freedom Convoy that turned out to be fake.
The first was the absurd allegation that somehow Russians were behind the scenes pulling the convoy’s strings in an effort to destabilize the Canadian government.
On the Jan. 28 edition of CBC’s Power and Politics, host Nil Koksal asserted, “there is concern that Russian actors could be continuing to fuel things as this protest grows or perhaps even instigating it from the outside.”
There was no Russian involvement, nor, as it turned out, any involvement by any other foreign power. Financial investigators couldn’t find a conspiracy by white supremacists, either – another of the Trudeau government’s biased allegations that the CBC swallowed whole.
A second CBC news story, that was corrected this week, involved allegations made by the Prime Minister’s Office (PMO) and by Finance Minister Chrystia Freeland, that the convoy could only have raised all the money it did (nearly $10 million, twice, on two different crowdfunding platforms), as quickly as it did, if powerful international interests were funnelling in large sums. […]
Even the government’s own terror-financing investigators could find no sign of illegal money going to the convoy.
