Bill C-18 Overhauls Journalists Pay: Up to 116% Increase in Salaries Supported by Canadian Government.
Citizen Watch Report ^

Posted on 11/27/2023 3:31:03 PM PST by davikkm

In a recent budget announcement, Freiland Bitch revealed a comprehensive set of measures signaling significant financial support for Canadian journalists. The Trudeau government is set to cover a substantial 55% of journalists’ salaries, albeit with a notable twist—this aid is exclusively directed towards newspapers and news organizations deemed “reliable.”

Under the newly amended Bill C-18, the government has responded to News Media Canada’s calls for increased support by enhancing the Labour Journalism Tax Credit. Formerly covering 25% of journalist costs up to $55,000 per employee ($13,750), the fall economic statement outlines a more generous system. Qualified Canadian Journalism Organizations, encompassing both print and digital platforms (excluding broadcasters), can now claim 35% of journalist expenditures, with a higher cap of $85,000 per employee.

State-controlled “journalists.”

What will they think of next?

Journos are like cops- pay them enough and nobody can afford to bribe them. It’s Market Discipline, government style!

“reliable”

When asking for loonies, emphasize the ‘lie’ sound.

“Freiland Bitch”? I knew a family named “Oder” and they changed it to “Oden”. Someone should pull this person aside and do him or her a favor.

Doesn’t sound like Canada is a ‘Freeland’, but the last name seems apropos.

We have state controlled journalists. We just aren’t as honest about it as the Canucks.

This is NOT A JOKE? Government (taxpayer financed propaganda?) will finance news given to the public?

Heh, now that arrangement most certainly guarantees independent, thinking ‘journalists’.

No wait, we have different arrangements here, but our so-called ‘journalists’ appear even less independent. As for thinking,feggedabowdit.

All Marxist governments need a well-paid propaganda machine...
All across the globe, msm fulfill their masters’ needs...

Doubling the salary of anyone, particularly the scum that represent 95% of the msm, is a major step to guarantee tyranny’s future...

Canadian journalist: I will expose Trudeau‘s failures!
Canadian journalist’s spouse: Isn’t he paying 55% of your salary?
Canadian journalist: Oh, right. I will cover up Trudeau‘s failures!
