Imagine the BBC World Service being told to stop being a "world service". That is what is happening to Radio Canada International (RCI).

Radio Canada International (RCI) has survived for 80 years, but it needs to be restored at this critical time in our society to play the important role it can and should play as Canada’s world service. #CdnFp #CdnPoli #CdnMedia

"Canada, Canadians, and our federal government have to step up and restore RCI because it comes down to whether we are enough of a nation to have a world service."

10 EU countries have signed a joint statement in support of Radio Free Europe, declaring their intention to "find and secure appropriate financial resources" to ensure the outlet can operate after the Trump administration cut the budget.
Signatories: 🇨🇿🇪🇪🇦🇹🇩🇪🇧🇪🇱🇻🇱🇹🇸🇮🇳🇱🇸🇪
Let’s save Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty! Over the weekend, I reached out to my fellow ministers with an initiative to support its funding. Today, I raised this issue at the General Affairs Council meeting. The statement now has the support of 10 countries. I am glad that even Commissioner @MartaKosEU and @Piotr_Serafin are aware of this issue and are interested in finding a solution.

Unprecedented as a single act in history of international broadcasting. Not just Voice of America but also Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty, Radio Free Asia & Radio/TV Marti either closing altogether or ending in their current forms. And apparently doing so with immediate effect.
All the more reason for countries like Canada to be bolstering (not butchering) its international broadcaster. Hopefully Carney will change this. to note @RCI_Action
“This evening marks the formal opening of Canada’s international broadcasting service. The program is wholly Canadian in its creation and spirit.”
