It's funny what the CBC decides to devote resources to. Never mind giving Canadians a look into Ottawa's role in the disasters that are now Ukraine and Libya. Ever mind an exposé on treason in Canada through so called free trade agreements or the "several hundred non prominent" Canadians mentioned in the Panama papers. Never mind Canadian support for the on going holocaust of the Palestinians.

Nope. Forget all that. It's all Putin all the time.

Maybe someone should tell the CBC that in real countries the traitors are not put in charge. They're put in jail.
