I’m betting on “no”.
They’ll seek out the fringe and ignore the majority, report innuendo and rumor as fact, and try and paint the whole movement as “racists, alt-right, anti-science” all the while ignoring all the evidence it’s not.
If some participant is interviewed and sounds articulate, with rationale concerns about government policy, that’ll be left on the cutting room floor.

But that is decidedly not the same thing as "CBC is now literally claiming that Russia is behind the truckers protest".
I assume CBC does it more for the outrage clicks than actually believing it’s a possibility.
But it seems par for the course as a political tactic lately: 1) deny a movement represents a significant part of the population, if that fails 2) associate the movement with undesirable elements like Neo-Nazi’s, militias, if that doesn’t work, 3) infer foreign interference.
Note you can do this without a single shred of evidence, pretend like it’s an innocent question, and still discredit the movement. How do you prove a negative?
I mean, if I asked “Maybe Trudeau is secretly an agent for the Chinese?” people would just say it’s a stupid question because without proof it’s just absurd.
It’s the same claiming this protest is being driven by Russia.
It doesn’t make the statement that the parent said about the CBC “literally claiming” the Russians are behind it any more true.
