Canadians Pay 18 Cents Weekly For CBC Services, Says Report
National broadcasting service costs the average Canadian family 18 cents a week in public funds, the CBC told Canadians in a "report to 16,420,000 shareholders." The paper was a condensation of the CBC's annual report.
The report points out that "the CBC, with the assistance of privately-owned stations, operated five national radio and television networks, three in English and two in French" last year at a combined cost in public funds of about $40 million. Because the CBC is a publicly-owned corporation every Canadian is a shareholder, and this is the reason the CBC has issued the miniature report, General Manager Alphonse Ouimet said. The report deals primarily with CBC program activities.
