I'm thinking of the academic sector, for example. Obviously, there can't be any national forum without journalists. This means journalists such as my colleague here and me, along with journalists from other places. We also need to hear from media bosses and people in various social groups.
I've been hearing all sorts of comments, especially about public trust in the media. We need to take note of these comments, but also put things in context. A Statistics Canada study released this week shows a strong correlation between public trust in the media and public trust in institutions. I don't think that we talk about this enough. It's one thing that must be addressed.
Another issue is revenue. We need to talk about that too, of course. Earlier, I wanted to show how much it costs to produce news. Quality news is even more expensive to produce. It takes more time and requires checks to make sure that the work is done properly.
