The Canadian government is now deciding who is a journalist
Description
Rudyard Griffiths and Harrison Lowman discuss how major federal departments are now prioritizing media access based on government-subsidized journalism outlets. They discuss how what was supposed to be a payroll tax appears to have mutated into a media licensing regime, and argue how this threatens journalistic independence while stifling innovation in Canadian media.
