They have great documentaries, movies and tv series such as North of North.

The more that people use their services the more funding they can can receive from the federal government to expand their programming lineup.

the federal government to expand their programming lineup.

so stolen money from taxpayers. I don't fault anyone for using government programs that they are forced to pay for, lord knows I do, but encourage their use in hopes they'll get more tax money, that's pretty wack.

They're using taxpayer money to provide a service available to every citizen that is literally what taxes are supposed to do.

I'm so tired of seeing "news" outlets saying "government program Y is losing this much money per year"

Services cost money, not lose it. That is how they work.
