Did CBC Help Liberals With Inquiry Questions?

Canadian Press: CBC reviewing claim reporter fed questions to Liberal MP


"a very serious allegation, and if proven true (it) begs the question: why
is a public broadcaster getting involved in partisan politics?"

CBC apparently censors own story about itself in controversy

Funny how the CBC, despite oodles of taxpayer dollars being incessantly shovelled thereunto, is incapable of doing its own stories and merely, blogger-style, posts Canadian Press stuff! And it appears to be possibly automatic, without editorial vetting prior to posting. Talk about value for our hard-earned... and easily confiscated by the government... money! Talk about professionalism and doing their job without taking lazy shortcuts! Huh... they sound a lot like the Liberals themselves!

The question is therefore being begged: How about a full, independent public inquiry into this possible collaboration between the supposedly non-partisan/non-biased/non-ideological/non-corrupt taxpayer-funded "public broadcaster" and the Liberal Party of Canada?

I recall that CBC reporter Terry Milewski was suspended for communicating with an APEC 1997 protester-witness, following a complaint from the then-Liberal Prime Minister's Office of "bias" against the Liberals. Ironic, that, in light of the optics of the CBC being like crossed fingers with the Liberals today!

We the Canadian People want, and have every right to know. Really, do we believe the claims of Liberals and other Leftist Opposition parties that "Canadians want an inquiry into the tall tales of an international fugitive known to be a liar/perjurer (Karlheinz Schreiber)"?

Given a choice, and given the massively greater amount of money involved in the CBC (billions, billions and billions out of your pocket and mine over the years as compared to an alleged $300,000 fee payment to a former Prime Minister for post-resignation services rendered... just because it was in cash, which isn't in any way illegal at all?), I believe Canadians prefer to know what on earth the CBC and Liberal Party are apparently doing, communication so suspiciously as regards an inquiry.
