BBC is starting its own Mastodon instance. The CBC should do the same. (lemmy.ca)

As it says in the title, the BBC is starting its own Mastodon instance. I think the CBC (and other news networks) should do similar. Particularly with the recent passing of Bill C-18 it seems like a world where the links we share are crossposts to news organization's own content is the perfect resolution to that whole issue.

they always seem a bit too reluctant to lead.

It is unlikely they have the know-how. The OECD doesn't call Canada the "most educated nation" because we believe in learning how to learn. We believe that one needs to be trained before they are able to do anything. At this time, it is all but certain that nobody has gone through a Fediverse/Mastadon/Lemmy college course.
