Once again, you’ve used the failboat at just the right time. This is seriously a failboat. Can’t wait to hear Pierre Mcguire call us in for the HNIC theme song and then we’ll watch the incredible match up of Anaheim and Tampa Bay on a Tuesday night.

The real reason that CBC didn’t renew its license for the song is because the song’s composer currently has a $2.5M lawsuit against the CBC for violating terms of use by selling ringtones and other infractions. CBC said it would only renew the license if the composer dropped the lawsuit, probably under the impression that no one else would license the song… whoopsies!

A bittersweet victory. I think this whole fiasco is indicative of back room plans to privatize the CBC. And it going to be hard to fight against it when they infuriate their supporters every step of the way.
