Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
My thanks to our witnesses for appearing today. Once again, our guests' testimony is enriching and extremely important for us as we consider this bill.
I would like to direct my first question to Ms. Stewart from the Canadian Association of Black Journalists.
Ms. Stewart, you talked about the intimidation that some journalists of colour experience in newsrooms. I found that very interesting because I worked in the media industry, particularly in radio, for four decades. I'm sort of competing with my colleague Mr. Waugh for seniority.
At the beginning of my career, it was actually quite rare to have black colleagues. Even the accents, any accent, of hosts and journalists grated on some people. Of course, there has been a lot of progress on that front. I'm surprised to learn that even today people in newsrooms may still be bullied based on colour.
I would like to know whether there have been any complaints about those incidents. Is there a mechanism in place for those being bullied? If so, how have the complaints been received and handled? Have recommendations been put in place in the workplaces where the incidents occurred? If not, I think it would be very important to do so.
Could you comment on that?
