There is some reason to believe that the fragment- ation of the television audi- ence brought about by cable, satellites and the Pay TV phenomena may have the ef- fect, at long last, of freeing the CBC from its quest for a mass audience and enabling it to replace quantity with quality hall- mark. q tY as a network ha 1 mark. When the CBC began in television thirty years ago, and it was the only television signal in most parts of the country, the brass at the mother corporation told themselves that they had a responsibility for balanced programming, that is a little something for everyone. If it was true then, it was much less true fifteen years later, and by now has become non- sense. In 1983, there is no reason at all for the CBC to carry "Dallas" beyond the fact that it needs the money. My only quarrel with Mr. Juneau is that he still be- lieves he needs at least some revenue from advertising and that he believes the net- work should go to about 80 per cent Canadian content as opposed to about 70 per cent now. If I may speak for a moment as a viewer, rather than a producer of Canadian programming, I would be happier with no advertising at all on a network for which I help stump up some $820 million dollars annually. And I would be happy if the Cana- dian content stayed at about 70 per cent, or even lower, and the CBC relied on more quality foreignprogram- ming ram- g ming to fill up its prime time schedule. My wife and I watched TV Ontario for a couple of prime hours the other night, for a one hour program on the Canadian painter, David Milne, and two half hours on ballet. The Milne program was produced for the CBC and TV Ontario jointly by an independent producer. And one of the half hours on ballet was produced by CKND Win- nipeg, a Global affilliate. I don't know when the Milne programplayed on the CBC, P Y but you can bet your boots it wasn't opposite The Love Boat or anything like that. And the CKND special on Pugh and Glasco and the Royal Winnipeg Ballet prob- ably won't be played on this network at all. That's too bad, in my view, in both cases but I have to accept the fact that it's part of the cur- rent Canadian reality. The struggle for the diminishing mass audience has become all -consuming, in the ublic and private net- works alike. The CBC's main concern now should not be balanced programming for the mass audience, but quality programming for the large parts of Canada which can't get either a TV Ontario or one of the PBS border sta- tions. That is the constitu- ency that is starving. And it's not just quality Canadian programming that a lot of us hunger for. Why, when col- lectively we give the CBC nearly a billion dollars a year, should we as in- dividuals, have to pay 15 bucks a month for a privilege of watching Nicholas Mickleby on C Channel? I have high hopes that with Pierre Juneau, the CBC will at least ackknowledge the factquestion th t the is a reasona le one.
