Speech Text: CBC Radio VP at Heritage Committee
This morning, a number of CBC executives appeared before the Standing Committee on Canadian Heritage. Here is the text of Jane Chalmers' speech -- she is the vice-president responsible for CBC Radio.

[snip]

There are now 25 cities in Canada with populations exceeding 50 thousand without CBC Radio service. That's 3 million people unable to have access to local news coverage and cultural programs. Our vision of the future has radio in all these cities and more. This is a centerpiece of our regional strategy.

Our ability to maintain our current service, however is in serious jeopardy. Even without budget cuts, the annual creep on our finances is at least 2%. After years of cuts, redirection, implementing technology and efficiencies, we are at the limits of our ability to continually absorb these pressures.

We have a vision of embracing all segments and sectors of Canadian society.

We have a vision of being a driving force in promoting Canadian culture. To fulfill that vision, radio must be able to connect with Canadians in all communities…and to connect, we need the tools to do the job.
