Justin Ling has kind of had it. While the veteran political journalist has endless patience for people in power trying to do the right thing, he can’t stand when a government refuses to see reality. So when Canada’s Heritage Minister reacted with surprise to the suggestion that, despite everything her government’s done for it, the country’s news media is still worse off than ever – well, that’s enough to radicalize a fella.On this week’s show, Karyn and Jonathan talk to Justin about his dispiriting interview with Pascale St-Onge, why he believes the Trudeau government’s efforts to save the media have been across-the-board failures, and what it would take to actually turn things around for this industry before it finally collapses and takes Canada’s democracy down with it.Correction: in an earlier version of this podcast it was stated 88 per cent of Canadians did not know Meta had wiped news from its platforms, this has been corrected. The number is 78 per cent.Host: Karyn PuglieseGuest: Justin LingCredits: Jonathan Goldsbie (News Editor), Caleb Thompson (Audio Editor), Cherise Seucharan (Reporter), max collins (Production Manager)Further reading on our websiteSponsors: Squarespace Check out Squarespace.com/canadaland for a free trial, and when you’re ready to launch use code canadaland to save 10% off your first purchase of a website or domain. Douglas Douglas is giving our listeners a FREE Sleep Bundle with each mattress purchase.

Pour la première fois, les Jeux Olympiques comptent autant d’athlètes hommes que d’athlètes femmes. Pourtant, parité ne signifie pas égalité. Que ce soit sur les terrains de sport ou dans les salles de nouvelles qui leur sont dédiées, femmes et hommes ne reçoivent ni les mêmes moyens ni un traitement égal. Pour cette émission, Emilie Nicolas reçoit Emna Achour, ex-journaliste sportive reconvertie en humoriste. Emna lève le voile sur les coulisses de ces rédactions et analyse les différences de traitement entre athlètes femmes et athlètes hommes. En deuxième partie, Emilie et Emna s’intéressent au rôle de l’humour et des humoristes dans l’analyse des nouvelles, un rôle que notre invitée perçoit comme étant éminemment politique.For the first time, the Olympic Games showcase as many male athletes as female athletes. But parity does not mean equality. Whether on sports fields or in newsrooms dedicated to sports, women and men don’t benefit from the same resources, nor do they receive equal treatment. On today’s show, Emilie Nicolas welcomes Emna Achour, a former sports journalist turned stand-up comedian. Emna take us behind the scenes of sports newsrooms, and she and Emilie analyze the disparity between female and male athletes. In the second part of the show, Emilie and Emna examine the role of humor and comedians in the analysis of news - an eminently political role, says Emna.Animation : Emilie NicolasGénérique : Lucie Laumonier (Production), Caleb Thompson (Production technique), max collins (Coordonnation de production), Karyn Pugliese (Rédactrice en chef) Coanimation : Emna AchourPour en savoir plus :Emna Achour sur TikTok et InstagramThe Ball Game Is for the Boys: The Visual Framing of Female Athletes on National Sports Networks’ Instagram Accounts – Communication & SportThe Olympics aren’t gender-equal just yet and broadcast narratives around that matter – The Brock NewsFemmes en politique: femmes en péril? – Détours #40Besoin de légèreté - Détours #43Si vous appréciez ce podcast, soutenez-nous !  Vous pouvez écouter sans publicité sur Amazon Music, inclus avec Prime.If you enjoy this podcast, please support us!

Drones make headlines at the Paris Olympics, and it’s all Canadian soccer’s fault. Mattea Roach joins Jonathan Goldsbie to consider the narratives around cheating in sports, and why it’s less personal than it was with Ben Johnson. Plus, why exactly does Postmedia want to acquire Atlantic Canada newspaper chain SaltWire?

All this talk of major leaders stepping aside, but it’s the Mayor of Kamloops BC, Reid Hamer-Jackson, who has our attention. In a raucous ‘resignation related” press conference, Hamer-Jackson singles out one Kamloops media member, radio host Brett Mineer, in particular. Plus, Kamala Harris replaces Joe Biden, and the Canadian media revives her tenuous connections to Canada. Shouldn’t we be pressuring Trudeau to step aside? Jen Gerson explains why messianic ego and the Liberal’s lack of grit will keep Trudeau in place until the next election. Host: Jesse BrownCredits: James Nicholson (Producer), max collins (Production Manager), Caleb Thompson (Audio Editor and Technical Producer), Karyn Pugliese (Editor-in-Chief)Guest: Jen Gerson Further reading on our website Sponsors: Douglas:  Douglas is giving our listeners a FREE Sleep Bundle with each mattress purchase.

Gabor Lukacs has won over 25 regulatory complaints against airlines - and even taken airlines to court to uphold the rights of passengers. But he doesn’t want to keep his methods a secret - he’s here to tell you how to get a refund, get compensation for a cancelled flight, and even what to do if you’re sitting on the tarmac for hours. Correction: In this episode it was originally stated that Flair airlines ceased operating.

D’après le Digital News Report 2024, 40% des Canadiens évitent souvent ou parfois de s’informer. Derrière cette fatigue informationnelle se trouvent différentes raisons comme l’accumulation de mauvaises nouvelles, leur quantité, leur piètre qualité et les émotions qu’elles nous font ressentir. Emilie Nicolas en parle avec la psychologue clinicienne, autrice et chroniqueuse Nathalie Plaat. Ensemble, elles analysent ce phénomène et s’interrogent sur la manière d’y faire face. En deuxième partie d’émission, on s’intéresse à la démocratisation de la psychologie et le rôle, parfois ambivalent, qu’elle joue dans l’espace public et l’espace médiatique. Université Laval’s “Centre d’études sur les médias” 2024 Digital News Report shows 40 per cent of Canadians often or sometimes stay away from the news. They’re doing it to avoid all the “bad” news: the sheer quantity of it, the poor quality of it, how it makes us feel, and how it piles up day after day. How do we deal with the seemingly never-ending bad-news cycle? Emilie Nicolas discusses this phenomenon with clinical psychologist, author and columnist Nathalie Plaat. In the second part of the show, Emilie and Nathalie look at the democratization of psychology, and the sometimes-ambivalent role it plays in both the public space and the media sphere.Animation : Emilie NicolasGénérique : Lucie Laumonier (Production), Caleb Thompson (Production technique), max collins (Coordination de production), Karyn Pugliese (Rédactrice en chef) Coanimation : Nathalie PlaatPour en savoir plus :Digital News Report 2024: Synthèse des données canadiennes — Centre d’étude sur les médiasChroniques de Nathalie Plaat — Le DevoirThe Rise of Therapy-Speak.
