Mr. Speaker, the decline of print media is hitting our regions hard. Back home, in Saguenay—Lac-Saint-Jean, ad revenue at newspapers like Le Quotidien and Le Progrès week-end is dwindling.
Since the Liberal government claims to care about information, it must take action and support print media, just like it supported other industries in which so many jobs were at stake.
Will the government commit to providing temporary financial assistance to print media and help maintain good jobs, while the industry awaits a permanent solution?
