Take the next step with us-send a clear, strong message about priorities =
for
public media in a digital age with our new input tool at
http://reimaginecbc.ca

<http://action.cwa-union.org/salsa/track.jsp?v=3D2&c=3DarVeuOI95wuNHhpo6k=

gUb2Pst> Take action!

You've pushed back against severe cuts to the CBC, and shared your ideas =
to
make it a leader in creative, participatory and engaging media.

Now take the next step with us-send a clear, strong message to the CBC =
and
decision makers about priorities for public media in a digital age with =
our
new input tool at http://reimaginecbc.ca.

This November, the CBC will be the subject of a public consultation when =
it
must renew its license to broadcast. Last time, the public consultation =
was
dominated by voices that wanted to dismantle and abolish the CBC.

yc6Vx0qGrpZ> This time, with your help, we'll ensure believers in public
media have a strong, unified voice, and give a clear message to the CBC
about its priorities and its direction.

We've taken the over 400 ideas from our Ideas Forum, and turned them =
into a
<http://action.cwa-union.org/salsa/track.jsp?v=3D2&c=3DHnQEJQR1q8G17prVNS=
gSAic6V
x0qGrpZ> public survey about the future of the CBC.1 Here, you'll find =
some
of the freshest, most forward-thinking projects to unlock the potential =
of
your public media. We're so excited to share what Canadians have come up
with.

We're asking you to tell us what you want the most-you'll
<http://action.cwa-union.org/salsa/track.jsp?v=3D2&c=3DbvL5nByz%2FTGW643a=
KStswCc
6Vx0qGrpZ> tell the CBC which values should guide it into the digital =
age.
Our input to decision makers is impossible to ignore when we come =
together
in big numbers to present an amplified, unified voice in support of a
revitalized CBC. After you have your say, you'll have a chance to help
connect as many Canadians as possible to the public survey with a =
special
invitation tool. Together, we can push back against those who would =
destroy
this essential tie that binds Canadians.

Join tens of thousands of Canadians in revitalizing our shared platform, =
and
make it yours. The anti-CBC forces are strong, but we can be stronger if =
we
work together.

Onwards,

Reilly & Jamie, on behalf of your ReimagineCBC.ca community....

P.S. Your support is vital to keep this conversation going across =
Canada.
