With nearly 250 more job losses announced for this month, the total number of destructive job cuts since April 10 of last year at CBC and Radio-Canada sits at well over 1,100.
To show your support for your CBC and Radio-Canada co-workers and demonstrate your commitment to our work, please wear black clothing tomorrow, Friday, April 10.

And as we fight for public broadcasting, we need the active help of friends, family, and supporters.
