The CBC announced on Thursday plans to integrate its English-language services under one executive, its current English television vice-president, Richard Stursberg.
The public broadcaster's board of directors have approved a proposal by CBC president Robert Rabinovitch to integrate the English-language side of the CBC.
Stursberg will assume the newly created role of executive vice-president, English services.
Each of CBC's media streams -- online, television and radio -- will continue to move forward on their specific paths and "there is no plan whatsoever for any reduction in staff," Stursberg told CBCNews.ca Arts.
"What this is about is actually finding ways of taking the content … and making sure that it is more broadly available across all platforms as they develop."
