The petition is now closed. Thanks to all who took the time to sign the petition and post comments. Though the CBC Radio Orchestra's life was ended by CBC Radio, the orchestra has been reincarnated in a new form: the National Broadcast Orchestra of Canada - Orchestre national de diffusion du Canada.
Dear Mark Steinmetz and CBC Radio, Prime Minister Harper, Members of Parliament, and the Minister of Canadian Heritage. We the undersigned want the CBC Radio Orchestra saved. We believe that the orchestra is an integral part of Canada's mosaic and an important contributor to Canada's unique and rich cultural heritage. Our Canada includes the CBC Radio Orchestra!

This is our cultural heritage. Many of us listen solely to CBC2 because of our radio orchestra and the fine musical programming.
Linda Ashton
I listen to CBC every day and the CBC Orchestra is a key ingredient in my enjoyment. Shame on you for denying Canada the pleasure of listening to these talented musicians make fabulous music.

I am discouraged at the direction the CBC is taking with the arts. The cultural shift in the Canadian landscape is moving away to the path of least resistance. We need to resist in order to preserve and encourage Canadian music and musical lives.

Come on guys, this is part and one of our most important part of our Canadian National heritage bringing Canadians - new and established, young and old together - please for the sake of preserving our culture...get with the programme!

My father listens to CBC radio all the time while my sisters and I were in the car. I have grown to like CBC radio... no matter what is playing. You cannot take the CBC orchestra away, it\'s part of the station. It makes it whole.

This superficial enhancement to CBC\'s bottom line in no way offsets, and evidently does not take into account, the long-term and irreparable damage it incurs to Canada\'s cultual status.

The dictatorial attitude of CBC officialdom leaves a lot to be desired. Their lord and master viewpoint is not earned when their wishes are contrary to those who provide their employment.

I am 19 years old from Bowmanville,ON. Many people listen to CBC Radio Orchestra while taking or while eating a nice dinner. To take this music off the air, is destroying any chance of expose my generation and future generations to some wholesome music.
