The federal Conservatives’ top Quebec Tory says the party’s concerns about the CBC do not apply to the broadcaster’s French-language wing, but one of its senators suggests there is a need to look at it mandate.

Quebec Sen. Pierre-Hugues Boisvenu, speaking in French, told reporters on his way into the party’s weekly caucus meeting this morning that Radio-Canada’s mandate should be re-centred to its core mission.
