The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation was wrong in gutting its OTA translator network. I say that it's time to reinvest in local TV. Let's have them put DTV signals on all their stations with English and French TV channels on its large markets and investing in digital low power transmitters outside the big cities. They've got to be reachable to all Canadians again.

Big mistake!

Many Canadian cities have much less local news than cities of similar sizes across the border. For example, in Northern Ontario, Sudbury, North Bay, Timmins, and Soo Ontario combined have one station doing a regional newscast with local inserts. If those four were in the US, each would have at least one separate full news department and Sudbury would probably have a second full news department.
