PROFILE |
 |
The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) offers viewers home-grown TV fare. The publicly financed broadcaster operates four radio networks (CBC Radio One and CBC Radio Two in English, La Chaîne culturelle FM and La Radio de Radio-Canada in French) and two television networks (one in each language) covering Canada with news, information, and entertainment. In addition, the CBC operates cable TV channels, satellite channels, and a digital pay audio service (Galaxie) with 30 music channels. Created by the Canadian Parliament in 1936 with a mission to promote Canadian culture, public funds make up about 65% of the CBC's operating budget; it also generates revenue through advertising and subscription fees.
