CBC promotes strategic voting against federal Conservatives during election

CBC being a tax-funded media outlet and all should be fair and objective, especially during the elections. Instead, they promote left-wing parties and their ideas while shunning the only right-wing party in Canada. We're in our final week of the 2008 Canadian election and what do I see on the CBC evening news? A 10 minute dialogue with a left-wing activist who designed a website to get Canadians to vote for the party most likely to defeat the Conservatives in their riding. That's fine, this is a free country. But why does the CBC spend so much of their time on this? In the 2006 election, strategic voting only accounted for 3% of the vote. They've also run story after story about strategic voting on their website.
