    1 CANADIAN BROADCAST STANDARDS COUNCIL ONTARIO REGIONAL COUNCIL CFRA-AM and CHRO-TV re The Lowell Green Show (CBSC Decisions 98/99-0157, 0158 and 0177) Decided June 17, 1999 A. MacKay (Chair), R. Stanbury (Vice-Chair), R. Cohen (ad hoc), P. Fockler and M. Hogarth THE FACTS On November 12, 1998, one of the topics discussed on CFRA-AM’s (Ottawa) Lowell Green Show, which is reprised the next day without editing in a videotaped format on CHRO-TV, was the controversial sentencing decision in the Lilian Getkate case. Getkate had shot her husband in the back while he was sleeping but pleaded self-defence based on the fact that she had suffered through years of abuse and lived in fear that he would kill her. She was sentenced to two years less a day of house arrest. Host Lowell Green was very critical in his comments on this sentencing decision. He alleged that there were no police records, hospital files or other form of corroboration even by friends or family to support the wife’s accusation of abuse. Sarcastically, he congratulated women for having been granted the leisure of killing men at will without fear of any harsh sentencing. His commentary on the case included the following monologue (with brief intervention from a caller): Here’s my advice for this wonderful Thursday morning. First of all, you take out a huge insurance policy on your husband, then, as he lay sleeping, you plug him full of brain holes. Then, when they come to arrest you, you tell everyone what a beast the guy was and presto, you’ve got yourself one rich widow.

  • Honour and Care
    Honourand Care Spring 2018 A Blessed Life By Peter McKinnon everal birthday cards adorn Edith Goodspeed’s room at the Perley and Rideau Veterans’ Health Centre, marking her recent birthday. “This was Snumber 99,” she says with a smile, “for all my future birthdays, I won’t count any higher…I’ll just stay 99.” Edith has certainly earned the right to lie about her age. As a Nursing Sister in England during the Second World War, she experienced the horrors of Nazi bombing and helped countless soldiers recover enough to return home or back into battle. She later raised three children and today is blessed with seven grandchildren and two great grandchildren. Born in 1919 as the second child of a farm family in Rosetown, Saskatchewan, Edith Mary Ferrall was named after her aunt. Edith’s father died before she was three; her mother sold the farm and raised Edith and her brother Arthur in Cypress River, Manitoba. “My parents both worked hard and did a lot for the community,” she recalls.

    CANADIAN BROADCAST STANDARDS COUNCIL ONTARIO REGIONAL COUNCIL CFRA-AM re the Mark Sutcliffe and Lowell Green Shows (CBSC Decisions 9697-0083, 0084 and 0085) Decided May 7, 1997 A. MacKay (Chair), R. Stanbury (Vice-Chair), R. Cohen (ad hoc), P. Fockler, M. Hogarth, M. Ziniak THE FACTS On January 1, 1997, the Ottawa police shot Mr. Francis Nicholls, a member of the black community, in his Ottawa apartment. On the following morning, Mark Sutcliffe, sitting in for the regular early morning (6:00-9:00 a.m.) host, Steve Madely, on CFRA-AM (Ottawa), dealt with issues relating to the shooting; he continued on the subject on the early morning show of January 3. Lowell Green, the host of the mid-morning (9:00 a.m.-12 noon) show, did not raise the subject on his show of January 2 but did deal with it at length on the show of January 3. Since the complainant raised issues of a substantially similar nature regarding the three shows of hosts Sutcliffe and Green which dealt with the shooting, the CBSC considers it appropriate to address the complaints in a single decision. There are so many excerpts from the various shows which bear some relevance to the issues raised in the complainant’s letter that the Council believes that the most useful way of presenting these is in Appendices to this decision, with only brief excerpts in the body of the decision. To do otherwise would result in an otherwise unavoidably confused presentation of the facts. That being said, the Council is of the view that having the lengthier excerpts available to those who wish to review this matter in detail will at least permit them to have all of the relevant material at hand.

  • Sun News Network Re Canada Live (Margie Gillis Interview)
    CANADIAN BROADCAST STANDARDS COUNCIL NATIONAL SPECIALTY SERVICES PANEL Sun News Network re Canada Live (Margie Gillis interview) (CBSC Decision 10/11-1803+) Decided December 15, 2011 R. Cohen (Chair), M. Bulgutch (ad hoc), S. Crawford (ad hoc), D. Dobbie (ad hoc), D.-Y. Leu, D. Ward THE FACTS Sun News Network broadcasts a public affairs program called Canada Live hosted by Krista Erickson. The program consists of discussions and debates on political issues and current events. In one segment of the June 1, 2011 broadcast, Erickson interviewed Canadian interpretive dancer Margie Gillis about public funding to the arts (the full transcript of the interview is available in Appendix A). Erickson introduced the segment by saying “Friends, buckle up and get ready for some great TV.” She then introduced Gillis by listing some of the dancer’s accomplishments and calling her a “national treasure” and an “iconic interpretive dancer”. Sun News then displayed on the screen the dollar amounts of various government-administered grants that Gillis and her dance foundation had received since 1998. Erickson challenged Gillis on why she and her dance foundation should receive taxpayers’ money. Gillis argued that she and her foundation do research on creative issues that “have value for the soul” and the community. Gillis mentioned some of her national and international accomplishments. She also suggested that the numbers Erickson was presenting were possibly skewed and that the amounts had actually been distributed over a longer time frame. Gillis pointed out that the arts need government funding because they are often not profitable on their own and she argued that artists are good at making a small amount of money go a long way.
