Why is CBC-Radio Canada doing this?

Tickets have been scarce if not impossible to come by for this highly-anticipated and emotionally-charged concert tour. The Tragically Hip decided to broadcast their final concert of the tour on the CBC. Some of our community partners, includingNorthern Lights Festival Boreal, Sudbury Tourism and Downtown Sudbury, have pitched in with help on the logistics of setting up a free concert in Bell Park.
