	Folkstone Design: Canadian Elections
		Some of the best observations during this election come from people calling in and comedians who say it like it is. The party leaders turned up the rhetoric and did not let their members speak freely about what they understand as experts in their respective fields of endevor.
		Ever the optimist I had hoped that with this election we might broaden our perspective and understand that we are part of a global community, add a little humor, and change the world for the better.
		Canadians from all points on the political spectrum, all regions and all walks of life are joining FVC to demand a fair voting system Ð a fundamental requirement for healthy representative democracy and government accountability."

	Canadian Broadcasting Corporation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The CBC's predecessor, the Canadian Radio Broadcasting Commission, was established in 1932 by the government of R.B. Bennett after an intense lobbying campaign by Graham Spry and Alan Plaunt of the Canadian Radio League which had been set up in 1930 to campaign for the implementation of recommendations by the Aird Commission on public broadcasting.
		This is partly due to severe budget cuts by the Canadian federal government, which began in the late 1980s and levelled off in the late 1990s.
		Defenders of the CBC mocked O'Reilly with his claim that the CBC was using their "monopoly" of Canadian broadcasting to smear him when in fact the CBC is one of at least three major domestic television networks in Canada and often not the highest rated one.
