Heard the most distressing news today. 'Battle of the Blades", one of my favourite shows, has been cancelled. I have blogged about this gem before -- the competitive show where big, burly professional hockey players team up with delicate figure skaters, don fancy skates and morph into amazing partners. It's a "beauty and the beast" scenario and so entertaining.
I figure the head of the CBC is cancelling it as a protest over budget cuts. Let's not cancel a crappy show, let's cancel a hugely successful one. 'Connect' with Mark Kelly is also being cancelled. Go figure. Contrariness at its finest.
The head of the CBC is a francophone, so I guess it's just an accounting anomaly that 40% of the CBC budget is devoted to the french-language network to serve 25% of the Canadian population. It's scandalous. Hmmmm, I seem to becoming very "anti-eastern" here.
