Save Canadian Television

Please, if you support Canadian programming, the most effective way is the Canadian Television Fund (CTF) despite what the cable companies tell you.

This is what I sent to the Minister of Heritage min_verner@pch.gc.ca:

As an employee of CBC Television, and a proud Canadian television viewer, I take serious issue with Shaw Communications' current campaign in nationwide advertisements to discredit and distort the essential contribution of the Canadian Television Fund to the production of Canadian television programming.

I sincerely hope that the Minister of Heritage and the CRTC will give swift action to resolve this dispute, and furthermore believe that it is irresponsible for a company like Shaw Communications---in possession of a public trust in the form of a telecommunications license---to willfully undermine an agency that has tirelessly and effectively promoted creative Canadian programming.

Save the CTF. Save our jobs. Save Canadian culture on our screens.
