Le CRTC a renouvelé mardi les licences accordées à Radio-Canada/CBC et ce, jusqu’en 2018. Parmi les décisions phares, le retour de la publicité à la radio fait grand bruit. Si la direction de la SRC s’en réjouit, les syndicats, soutenus par un grand nombre d’auditeurs, crient au scandale.
If Darwin was around, he would read free online news instead of a print newspaper. That's according to a commercial on a Saskatchewan radio station promoting its free website. But rather than taking insult at being called a dinosaur, the Prince Albert Daily Herald has embraced its new mascot with an ad campaign of its own.

Parmi eux, plusieurs élus de l’île, qui trouvent le moment particulièrement mal choisi, à quelques mois d’une élection municipale capitale pour la démocratie locale.

Several media organization, including the Canadian Association of Journalists and the Canadian Journalists for Free Expression have launched an advertising campaign to protest Bill C-60. “Our public broadcaster must be at arms length’s from the government,” the ad says.
May 22, 2013 I owe you a note on Bill C-60. I want all of you to know that this Bill, and its potential direct and indirect consequences on our Corporation, is the most important matter on my desk.
