As commissioner, I travelled throughout the country and met with radio and television hosts in stations from Vancouver to Regina, for instance. These people do excellent work covering local events which serve as points of reference for the minority communities in the region. As is the case everywhere, not only does local radio and television play a role in terms of information and awareness raising, but it also serves to bring the community together, giving the community something to identify with.
