Stephen LeDrew is joined by André Proulx, producer of the Three Minute Interview, for a discussion about media coverage, public protest, and growing distrust in Canadian institutions.
While travelling through Atlantic Canada, Proulx unexpectedly encountered a large anti-government protest focused on rising gas prices, affordability, and frustration with the federal government. But what shocked him most wasn’t the protest itself — it was the near-total absence of mainstream media coverage.
Despite highway disruptions and a visible public demonstration stretching across multiple provinces, Proulx says major outlets including CBC, CTV, and local media appeared to largely ignore the story.
The conversation explores whether government-funded media organizations are becoming increasingly hesitant to cover stories critical of Ottawa — and what that means for journalism, public trust, and democracy in Canada.
