Nothing works from this address for me either. You've got to go to the
program's site and click the screen that presents the video.

When you call to complain, they suggest that you "clean your cache".
Whereas the BBC's technicians developed Dirac, the CBC drones buy
turnkey solutions and can only read the manual even if the entry has
no relation to the problem.

Write to Hubert Lacroix to complain. He's presently asking the CRTC
for yet more money to hire some more drones.  hubert.lacroix (chez)
