[Russell McOrmond]

   Heritage Committee is doing a review of the CBC.

   Since many people in this forum have wanted the CBC to take on some of 
the ideas from the BBC such as the Creative Archive 
http://creativearchive.bbc.co.uk/ , this may be a good time.

   If you send in a submission, please post about it on this forum or BLOG 
so that others will know about it as well.  This might encourage them to 
participate as well.

"Organizations and individuals wishing to appear before the Committee 
should submit their briefs by February 26, 2007. Submissions should be 
limited to 10 pages in length and accompanied by a one page executive 
summary. Briefs should be provided in electronic form whenever possible."
