I feel that the priorities we are dealing with in this study are really about journalistic coverage in the regions, any regions. You answered questions on that previously. While some colleagues and I will have different opinions, I feel that we need as many different voices as possible. A diversity of information in the regions has been sorely lacking for years, important though it is.
I think you know that I see the public broadcaster as having an important role to play in that, in collaboration, not in competition, with other media. We may have to be careful about the way in which the collaboration is done, but I feel that it is important to maintain the investments you have made in regional journalism.
That leads me to ask you about greater Montreal. I know that, in more remote regions, positions for journalists have been opened and journalists have been hired. But recently, we are hearing a lot of concerns in greater Montreal. I know you are making an effort there, but concerns have been expressed recently. One is that media coverage in the Laurentians is not good enough, despite the issues that the media, especially the public broadcaster, should be addressing.
How do you see those concerns?
