CKCU and my program may just be a miniscule voice in the chaotic turbulence of this world. But I think it's a voice that matters. The world is filling up with hatred and populist leaders who sell a vision of ethnic and racial isolation, and too many fearful people are buying into it. CKCU and my program are the opposite. A vision of inclusiveness, a vision that humanity *has always* been driven by migration and exchange of ideas and culture. That having neighbours whose skin is a different colour or whose mother tongue is different than yours enriches your life, enriches humanity. So many forces are trying to drive humanity into darkness. I need your help to bring the light! Keep CKCU going as a necessary voice in our community, in our world! Music is the greatest creation of humanity, and my program will keep sharing this wonder with you! Bring the light! Make a donation to keep CKCU running!

One of the problems is that modern communications -- or rather their spread, like waves -- favour the irate loudmouths. The majority, decent get-along people, are by their character not going to be on the web, ranting or, worse, spreading actual lies and disinformation. Thanks for your good stuff.
