Thank you very much.
I think the issue is that the criteria that are set out in clause 6 are objective criteria. An example is language. We know if something is in English or French. We know if something is coming from a racialized group. We know if something is coming from an indigenous community. We know what a local news and business model is.
However, ideology is entirely subjective. The last thing we want the CRTC to be doing is butting in and determining the ideology and opinion of a newspaper. Moreover, as I think Mr. Champoux said before, news is not supposed to be biased. It's not supposed to have ideology or opinion, and we shouldn't care about the editorial content of any newspaper when we are evaluating what their journalism product is, which should be entirely outside of the ideology of the paper. I think that is the major difference.
Thank you to my friend Marilyn for advancing that point, though.
