The fact is that the media are one of the pillars of our democracy. They are there to provide information to the public. And I believe they have an obligation to do that in a variety of areas.
As regards criminal activity, talking for a moment just about Montreal--and I'm convinced it's the same thing in every city in Canada--some reporters only cover legal cases and are in the courthouse on a daily basis to report on cases the public should be informed about. On the other hand, they obviously cannot report on every case that is heard by the courts.
