CANADALAND

Le gouvernement caquiste du Québec a récemment proposé une nouvelle mesure qui, selon le premier ministre François Legault, protégera la langue française. Cette mesure consiste à augmenter les frais de scolarité pour les personnes non-québécoises souhaitant étudier dans une université au Québec. Comme cette hausse aurait certainement un impact sur les universités anglophones qui accueillent un grand nombre d’étudiant.es de l'extérieur de la province, les médias à travers le pays ont rapidement exprimé leur inquiétude. Andrew Parkin, directeur général de l'Environics Institute, se joint à Emilie pour discuter de la façon dont cette nouvelle mesure influence la perception du Québec par le reste du Canada. Andrew nous offre également un aperçu d'une nouvelle enquête par l’Environics Institute et l’Initiative du Siècle qui démontre que les attitudes envers l'immigration sont en train de changer parmi les Canadiens. 

Quebec's CAQ government recently proposed a new measure which, according to Premier François Legault, will protect the French language. The measure involves raising tuition fees for non-Quebecers wishing to study at a university in Quebec. As this increase would certainly have an impact on English-language universities, which welcome a large number of students from outside the province, media outlets across the country were quick to express their concern. Andrew Parkin, Executive Director of the Environics Institute, joins Emilie to discuss how this new measure affects the rest of Canada's perception of Quebec. Andrew also provides an overview of a new study by the Environics Institute and the Century Initiative, which shows that attitudes towards immigration are changing among Canadians.

At ten years old, the Canadaland network has had its share of successes: investigative journalism, powerful accountability interviews, thoughtful analysis, critique of the media when it’s at its worst, and telling the weird, often untold stories about Canada. 

It has also had a few misses, like hiring the voice actor for Lisa Simpson to advertise for the company.

Today’s episode features a few segments from the recent live show at the Hot Docs Podcast Festival, with hosts Mattea Roach, Jonathan Goldsbie, Allison Smith, Karyn Pugliese, Arshy Mann, and popular Short Cuts co-host Jan Wong interviews Jesse Brown.

As the conflict in Gaza and Israel continues to escalate, Pacinthe Mattar sits down with Jonathan to consider the ways in which narratives are shaped, journalists are obstructed, and parameters of discussion get enforced.

They also look at the RCMP’s response to photojournalist Amber Bracken’s wrongful-arrest lawsuit, which somehow finds a new way to wring controversy from the term “occupation.”

Correction: A previous version of this episode featured claims of an altercation between an alleged Israeli police officer and Arabic-speaking reporter, elements of which Canadaland has since not been able to verify.

Clarification (Nov. 6, 2023): Further clarification has been added to our web post.

Award-winning podcaster Connie Walker joins Jesse in studio to talk about the problems and racism she faced at the CBC, including the pushback she received when trying to tell stories about Indigenous women. 

But that racism and pushback didn’t deter her. During her time at the CBC, she created what is now known as CBC Indigenous. She also created the hit podcast series Missing & Murdered which, despite its success, was canceled after two seasons. She remains committed to telling those stories, making sure that they are more than just footnotes in Canadian history, with her work on the series Stolen, at Gimlet Media, for which she recently won a Pulitzer Prize and a Peabody award.

L’Israël et le Hamas sont au centre de l’attention des médias du monde entier à la suite de l’escalade du conflit israélo-palestinien la fin de semaine dernière. Michel Cormier, ancien correspondant international et ancien directeur général de l'information à Radio-Canada, se joint à Émilie pour discuter de la couverture médiatique d’enjeux particulièrement sensibles.  Que doivent garder à l’esprit les journalistes pour assurer une couverture juste et éthique ? Suite à plusieurs années à s’immerger dans des villes telles que Moscou, Paris et Pékin, Michel réfléchit à l’impact de ses correspondances internationales sur sa propre vision du monde. 

Israel and Hamas are the focus of worldwide media attention following last weekend's escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Michel Cormier, former foreign correspondent and former Executive Director of News and Current Affairs at Radio-Canada, joins Emilie to discuss media coverage of particularly sensitive issues. What should journalists keep in mind to ensure fair and ethical coverage? After immersing himself in cities such as Moscow, Paris and Beijing for several years, Michel reflects on the impact of his role as a foreign correspondent on his own worldview.

Journalism in Canada is fighting for its life. Support Canadaland now.

There’s a video on YouTube titled “Trudeau’s Alleged AFFAIR with Minister of AFFAIRS” that baselessly suggests the Prime Minister’s marriage fell apart due to a dalliance with a member of his cabinet. It has nearly half a million views.

It’s the biggest hit for a channel called Street Politics Canada that, for more than a year, has been churning out anti-Trudeau content day after day. Street Politics claims to be an “independent news organization” based in Canada that is “clear and upfront” about their biases — but who are they, and why haven’t we heard of them before?

On this week’s CANADALAND, host Jesse Brown, editor-in-chief Karyn Pugliese, and news editor Jonathan Goldsbie start pulling at a thread that ultimately takes their search to the other side of the world.

Elon Musk accused Justin Trudeau of “trying to crush free speech in Canada.” The jab was prompted by Bill C-11, the Online Streaming Act, which creates new regulations for online creators in Canada. So what does the law actually say? And what’s behind this growing international movement of painting Trudeau as a tyrant?
