CBC cuts jobs despite government handouts

The Daily Brief

About this episode

Seven hundred journalists will be out of a job soon after the CBC confirmed it was cutting up to 10% of its workforce due to financial difficulties despite a landmark $100 million deal with Google for the legacy media. Plus, Nova Scotia’s volunteer fire services is demanding a federal carbon tax exemption as it faces evermore stringent budget constraints. And patients seeking assisted suicide in Canada are mostly “privileged white people,” according to Trudeau Foundation fellow and medical ethicist Dr. Jocelyn Downie.
