CBC Northern Service, which began in 1958, is the most notable example of regional programming.
When the CBC's budget began to be cut drastically in the 1980s, the CBC found itself in a nearly impossible situation - lured to cheap foreign programming in order to meet budgetary demands, but thereby compromising its original mandate to keep a Canadian voice and a Canadian perspective in broadcasting.
In 1999, CBC was recognized internationally from among all other broadcasters in the world as the first television network to ensure permanent distribution by satellite.

 The CBC — Up North
But given the circumstances, the CBC was the only game in town, unless I cared to listen to radio stations from Duluth or Minneapolis.
It seems to me that the CBC is a microcosm of all that is wrong with this country: the profligate waste, the conceit that we are making a real difference in the world, the pretensions and delusions of grandeur and most sadly, the utter irrelevance of anything relating to gritty, life-sized reality.
CBC Radio sucks harder than gravity pulls, I think; that would explain its ubiquity in those parts of the country that consist mostly of rocks.

CBC acquired the patchwork of former military stations and built new transmitters and stations.
However, the decision of the government to set up radio operation in the North and grant the necessary funds made it possible for the Inuit to be rapidly involved in this new medium, and thus not only passive consumers of mainstream Canadian culture.
