Just a few random thoughts

Wednesday was fairly mellow, for me anyway, tomorrow won't be - the Hospitality workers BBQ and then Jack Layton will be out to speak. For today though just a few thoughts -

First, I'd like to encourage anyone reading this (if anyone is reading this) to join in thanking BECTU and NUJ (the principal unions of the BBC) for trying to help keep BBC content from replacing locked out CBC workers.

Second, I've heard repeated comments on the line to the effect that if upper management were broadcasters, if they were people who'd risen through the ranks of the CBC that we wouldn't have gotten to the point we're at. The question, and this is really a question for Parliament, is: If veteran broadcasters are good enough to be the Governor General, why are veteran broadcasters not good enough to lead the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation??
