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 an extremely significant issue. The Govt.\'s response to our petition may well influence how we vote in the next election.

This is a national treasure. Canada has too few icons we can look to as it is, let\'s not take away a great part of our culture.

The CBC Orchestra costs less than $1 million/year. If anything, their budget should be increased so they could start recording again. Don\'t let ours be the generation that destroys this national treasure. Katherine Farris

This is too important to ignore. Music makes more of a difference than most other things, to our quality of life. Especially REAL musicians.

The CBC is part of what makes Canada a country and allows Canadians from coast to coast to coast communicate with each other. It has been grossly underfounde for many years.

For the past 43 years I have enjoyed the CBC radio and its programs. I believe that even when staying up to date we need to save quality entertainment. If at all possible let us keep the CBC Radio Orchestra. Thank you.
