Former CBC anchor Travis Dhanraj says he was “forced to resign” from the public broadcaster after raising internal concerns about tokenism, editorial bias, and what he described as a culture of exclusion, retaliation, and psychological harm.

In a public statement to colleagues released Monday, Dhanraj, a senior parliamentary reporter and former host of Canada Tonight, said his departure was not voluntary. Dhanraj alleged he was forced out after he questioned what he characterized as a growing gap between CBC’s stated values and internal practices.
